Is this how ALK FA's operate, calling the company on the pilots on overnights? Please let me know so I can make sure NOT to invite them out for a crew beverage on overnights.
Well in this case the FA's intuition was probably correct that something was amiss... we just don't know what. Obviously traditional crew etiquette would be to ask the person to call in sick, but maybe this was so weird the FA was afraid to confront him.
