Could be he is missing something or you are missing something and you discuss the problem work it out one way or another as opposed to the line in the sand.
As far as the rest of your statement come on all that happening on a daily basis? A little over dramatic maybe. I know some of this happens but to you on a daily basis so you left?
It's called "aircraft shopping" at UAL in 2008.
In other words, aircraft routers would push aircraft to another crew, or 2, or 3, to find their taker.
True, there are some mx issues that happen that are acceptable to flight "a" but not flight "b".
Trust me, it happened more times than I care to remember. Especially the go home flight. Think the routers/schedulers didn't know your schedule?
Yes, I did advocate in a respectful manner. Then, the line was drawn in the sand as I didn't care when safety is an issue. If I get home a day late because of it...I still got home.
Perhaps you should take the same approach.....
