Well this is a good point you've raised and one which needs to be addressed sooner rather than later... time (and age) is not on our side.

Recently some ex-Ansett boilers challenged the decision of VB not to hire them and said it was due to their (advanced) age.

They don't understand that people, as you've just shown, do not really want their grandmother's bingo team in charge of the slides, rafts, sashaying, looking good, etc.

And the businessmen think about getting an occasional VPL sighting, maybe evidence of a micro-scopic "G". They definitely DO NOT want evidence of a macroscopic set of bloomers and a girdle... not to mention the falsies falling out and chattering on the floor.

A woman where I fly sits at the front out of harms way and does the crossword the entire sector. She's the purser and looks about 75 or so but is senile so the captains just have her placed out of the way in the galley. Is this good??? Well I admit it IS kinda funny but not giving the businessmen or death-phobic ice-cream lickers what they want.
