We're grown adults, individuals, and professional pilots... why make a deal about the captain accepting it and us not? If you're done, you're done. Who cares if he's fine- he might have slept wonderfully while you were dealing with family issues. That's how it goes. Don't make a big emotional deal about it, and they have no room to do the same.

I had a tracker give me a deal about throwing down a pumpkin time when I felt our eastbound afternoon westcoast flight would become a redeye due to our rolling delay. He asked me if I reported not ready to fulfill my contract. I asked him "If something in the contract was legal, is it automatically safe?" He said yes. I told him that we could no longer have a productive discussion and to hand me over to the supervisor or duty pilot. Backpedalling ensued and the situation was resolved very quickly.

Once again a little bit of information can be spun into all kinds of rumors. Once the whole picture is unveiled the picture becomes very clear. Pilots like this one are the reason JB management came out with the poorly rolled outdependability policy.
Once again sick calls are the only thing that can trigger a dependability review. Fatigue and duty extensions currently do not. Let's keep it that way and vote in a CBA.
