Overslept

It’s never a good thing when, just moments after everyone has been seated on your 6:30 a.m. flight from LAX to SFO, the flight attendant announces,

Thank you for flying with us this morning.  Unfortunately, we’re having a little trouble finding someone to fly the plane.  Our pilot, who is driving from Orange County, is running late. So, this flight will be delayed two hours.
