Ladies and Gentlemen,
I would also like to add on to this statement. As a reminder to all this is a very public forum. We do not have the facts. If you want the facts perhaps you should email a chief pilot. Or email the union. All I can discern is what it says on the MX dashboard for 211NN. Frankly some of the speculation is ridiculous. Ask questions before you jump to the conclusion the company is trying to screw us all.

Scroll down to the pictures. They did it...

Exactly. I think I'd much rather explain why I got fired for refusing the orders to blow slides for DOT 3 than the opposite. "I was only following orders" - that's what they said at the Nuremberg trials...
Though of course the disclaimer applies - we don't know what exactly happened. Maybe they told the pax "we're just opening a door with a slide to force the airport's hand and get us the airstairs and a bus, please remain seated unless you want to risk your legs"

you would think by now there would be some communication from the CPO, like with a lot of things lately just radio silence.

Remember the email about, "Due to aircraft damage on the American side..." nothing. Talk about a very vague email and then to hear nothing else about it. They say they are transparent and have an open door policy. Yeah, right.

The passengers were evacuated via airstairs from the AFT. Nobody had to evacuate via the slide. It sucks that the Captain was put into this situation in the first place, I think most people would not have blown the slide. But, that's what happened, and it is what it is.
I am pretty surprised that you guys would think the only option of exiting the aircraft when there is no real emergency is through a slide. The safety of the passengers were never at risk - but the future of Compass most likely was if they would have had to shell out another $2+ millions. Tough call in my opinion.
