Have to ask. How do you know it is .1%? Thus are you admitting that abuse actually takes place?

The 767 FO's are skewing that average if I am to believe the bravado. I have even asked them what happens if they get caught and every single one has said they have a CO that covers for them. One in particular was upset when the company asked him for orders he didn't have. He spent the better part of a transcon trying to figure out a way to use USERRA to protect his lack of orders. He just wanted time off.

That's the integrity side of ML I get to see. There is plenty more FO's that I hear talking about milking the system. If you are going to toss out an unscientific .1%, I'll throw in an equally unscientific 20% that abuse ML.
