It should be an obvious thing, but as I have said over and over and over, the company decides who rides on their machine and if you exercise "authority" counter to it, you better have a damn good reason.
The skipper is in charge of the boat, but that doesn't grant blanket authority do anything he wants, and just saying "conversation over" doesn't work outside of fantasy-land.
You keep going to extremes to try and prove your point. Obviously in the scenario that you present above, one would have A LOT to answer for. The decision obviously has to be backed by logic and a genuine belief their decision is for good cause, and nowhere did I allude otherwise.
We are clearly not going to agree, but my statements are not based on "fantasy land" beliefs, but real world experience. Regardless, I give up on this conversation.
