In my experience, the chief pilot threatens to not pay protect you as intimidation. In my case there was nothing to pay protect me for which is why I took it as intimidation. Most guys here like their job and extending is just easier as it is what our company expects you to do.
The chief pilot has absolutely nothing to do with pay protection so he can’t threaten you. You do seem to have interesting experiences. I would have followed that experience up and pushed to see he no longer works as a CP.
I have never had a call from a CP for refusing a extension and even pulling the plug prior to needing a extension. I have had to deal with the duty pilot calling but that’s easy.
