4. None of your damn business. Kinda of speaks for itself, but last time I checked this is a free country and if I don't want to seek a promotion, I shouldn't be forced into it. It shouldn't matter if you feel I am stupid or not, it is a choice that the person needs to make...
Let’s not make this about something tge really isn’t the complaint. I promise you that if you got an upgrade then went to the office and told them that you were not safe or ready to upgrade they’d listen. No corporation could afford the liability of putting someone in charge of a flight that did not feel safe being there. Can you imagine the headlines if there was an accident? Or the NTSB/FAA action? It’s a cop out. This whole thing is about people that don’t want to go to LGA, nothing more. Safety concerns are a red herring.
