However, when she approached the entrance to the lounge, two employees,\u00a0<strong data-start=\"1614\" data-end=\"1624\">Taylor<\/strong>\u00a0and his supervisor\u00a0<strong data-start=\"1644\" data-end=\"1651\">Ben<\/strong>, turned her away, claiming that her\u00a0<strong data-start=\"1688\" data-end=\"1702\">membership<\/strong>\u00a0was no longer valid.
