I might understand "pushing back" being a viable option if they could staff the airline but I've been called a good 20 times this month (4x between 3am and 9pm yesterday) for what I assume to be OT so it would seem a bit foolhardy to poke a bearish pilot group who's help you need. Then again I'm just a stoopid line pilot and not a low tier but highly compensated member of management so what do I know...
