Burn That Place Down.....
Nothing wrong with waiting until departure time to call maint about maint items better late then never....
How are those exterior placards looking? or just noted that foreign matter in the radio freq window or LNG alt window etc..
APU bleed air has a needle split between L and R call maint, duct leak...
How is that pesky parking brake bleed down looking???
I wouldn't get near AA right now, Passenger's that buy a ticket on them deserve what they get...
AMR Management asked for it and they got it......

It should be no surprise you screw the Pilots and they will screw you back.....
Pretty much any Pilot can ground any plane at anytime no MX is perfect and judging from all the recent FAA fines AMR's Suck's...
A Pilot in the normal course of their job keep the operation running on time. If they do Their job and only Their job the operation does not run as smooth as it normally should...
I guess AMR's Suck AA$$ management is now getting what they pay for...
Oh well, I hope their bonus money doesn't get blazed..

The media and public is ignoring the maintenance side of this problem. Even before BK, maintenance was on a shoestring. Now that BK is reality, the feds are everywhere, poking their noses into the operation, especially the cockpit/maintenance interface, and how mechanicals are dealt with.
Obviously, no pilot is going to risk his ticket by accepting a jet that has maintenance issues that require attention.
Everything that has happened in the last few weeks is nothing more than pilots being exceptionally careful and conservative. This is a good thing. Follow the FARs, you cannot go wrong.

AMR expects about 4,400 job cuts, warns 11,000 - Yahoo! Finance
If the Air Force told you that you've been RIF'd at the 15 1/2 year point, how would you react?

What you said:
Which was not what he said.
I don't think a majority on this board are hired post 07, but it is a high representation. You're new here- he's been around a while and has a feel for who is who on the board.

I see you're jumping on the assumption train. I'm not 'new' here. Been trolling for a couple years. Just bored enough to chime in tonight. And that's exactly what he said. But good rebuttals! But not really....lets not turn this post into a two man argument. I'd like to keep reading informed opinions and information.

That is not "exactly what he said"...and I agree, they are "good rebuttals" because they are spot on. I believe that Alfa is fairly accurate on the general profile of posters here.
