Their last "scheduled" day anyway.

Yes. Otherwise it's like saying that everyone who breaks a leg skiing
does it on the last run of the day.


Pretty much.
OTOH when I had my big crash at Crystal Mountain, I still had to go up
on the lift one more time with 2 black eyes and a bloody nose. One guy
said "You do know when to quit".
The problem was I was staying at the top of the mountain so I couldn't
quit till I got there.
