If you cant do the hiring and firing you're not really the boss.

That's not how being the boss works. Not everyone in a chain of authority has the power to fire the person below them. It usually is allocated to someone a little higher up than direct supervisor.

Default Alaska FO involved in another flight cancella

Betty Pina was the FO on Alaska flight 886 that had to be canceled from LIH to SEA on Friday. My understanding is that she had another incident involving alcohol on a layover and blacked out....and the rumor is that the rest of the story is almost identical to the previous incident that we are all aware of. Looks to me like the common denominator is not the captains she has been paired with. I hope Alaska Airlines starts standing behind their veteran captains and upholds their high standards when it comes to probationary pilots.

Normally I would ask who in their right mind would go out with her on the layover considering the previous accusations. If this actually happened it will certainly help narrowing down the truth on the first incident.

You had TWO Captains stupid enough to try to bed a drunken subordinate? And the second one had to know what had happened to the first one!

What do Alaska captains use for brains anyway? Their Johnsons apparently. And another MARRIED captain at that? Do none of you take your marital vows seriously?
