Every year or so there needs to be a lesson. If you get s-hammered on a overnight call in sick. Then go home.

You left out the most important part. As soon as you get home remove yourself from active work status and contact your HIMS coordinator to try and get well. Just calling in sick is simply kicking the can. The problem is it generally takes a major event in a drug addicts life to force them to get help. This pilots career can be salvaged if he is willing to due the work. It would have been easier had he sought help prior or friends had pushed him to get help. It’s not however to late.

You have major airlines like Delta asking the government to put passengers who don't wear masks properly or give any instance of grief to be placed on a national No Fly List. You also have airlines that seek to recover damages from drunk passengers causing diversions. But apparently intoxicated pilots are ok to be keep employed? Does everyone understand how much hypocrisy is going on? We are supposed to be professionals. Anything short of revoking certificates makes us look like entitled hypocrites. I hope the guy gets the help he needs but his pilot days should be over. You can't even deliver for Amazon or drive an Uber with a DUI. We should be demanding better of each other.
