Default ExpressJet Policies

For those who work for ExpressJet, what are their policies for the following?

The FO notices the aircraft will be overweight with current loading, Captain wants to go

Given a more direct route in flight and it is apparent that the airplane will land overweight

The standard interview scenarios: FO notices bad tire on preflight, or Nav light out....I know these questions are asked on interviews but I was wondering how XJT actually advises their pilots to handle them

Captain shows up drunk.....what do they tell you to do?

Captain passes out in flight for some reason (possibly due to an unknown smoke entering the cockpit)

Approaching a Class B airport ATC clears you to descend below the floor of Class B

Cleared for an approach 80 miles out at FL240

Weather goes below approach mins outside the FAF....inside the FAF?

If you notice there is a T-Storm right on an airway, do you always ask ATC for a vector or is there another procedure?

Again, I know some of these are common interview questions and I know how I would answer them, I'm just curious what the actual company procedures are. I have no 121 experience so I'm curious how you guys handle this stuff.
