is this how you guys really do things at FDX?
I would say your advice could lead to a bad outcome considering the crew. I would have first been inclined to go to ALPA pro stans but if the Captain received push back and attitude from the F/O he might have made the right call. Strange new world now where someone can call checklist bullying and companies by it.
