ouch ... that burns.
However, it's not quite as stupid as some associates of mine who waited, forlornly staring at the terminal entrance, for another of their friends, so they could all get checked in together.

Waited, while the boarding and gate-soon-to-close calls for that flight go out.

And continued to wait. Right through the gate closing and the flight taking off.

The friend? He'd gone straight in, they'd missed him, he'd checked in like any normal fellow, and managed to catch his flight, through not being a doughnut.

At least you still have a flight to catch ... !
