But again, I was seeking some guidance from the Duty Pilot. Yes, I was hoping he'd help me make a tough decision. Believe me, it's not a lack of confidence or anything like that.

I have a rule calling in sick. If my sick call derails the operation that badly, we have bigger problems at Delta. Maybe I should do the same with fatigue calls.

Anyway, thanks everyone. Even Breezy. We don't agree on much, but I think y'all gave me more grace than I deserved.
