We have our moments and some almost unbelievable stories, but I have learned many ways to skin the whatever without killing it. Crew talk at cruise is invaluable.
I’ve let them send me a couple times to places I knew wasn’t right. The way Atlas management treats the pilots I don’t do anybody else’s job nor do I tell them they’re screwing up their job. The Toronto/Taranto thing was mostly a case of not wanting to deal with the peak stupidity of airline travel internationally multiple legs during Covid. Not all that long ago I airlined to Dulles when I knew they were supposed to send me to Dallas. Unless I’m going home, I just get on the travel that’s booked and see what happens.
