Statements like this are why guys adjust the times and roll the airplane when they are not ready. Then when I show up the ramp wants to roll for the out time and I tell them absolutely not they act like I've got three eyes.

I do not go out of my way to sabatoge the operation but I also don't try to prop it up by doing everyone else's job. The out time is of little concern to me these days. Everything goes in the book no matter how small and we don't push until the entire crew, gate, ramp, and mx are ready. If we are late we are late. If we are on time, fine, but I'm not adjusting times or rolling early. If late I send an ACARS as to why. I've never been called by a cheif looking for an explanation. Do your job and you have nothing to worry about even if they do call. It's your legal obligation and why you were hired.
