Could not agree more, I did 27 years in Air Force as a C-5 Pilot, never got called out for judgment as an A/C with over 5000 hr s in command, to get second guessed on 3 sick calls with three kids under 10 in the house was pretty undignified in my opinion! That said it was a nice they gave men some candy leaving!
