Effective yesterday the 23rd anything being out of date on your EFB not only means a failed line check but also now a Section 18 hearing and a permanent letter in your file.
Also, due to shear pin events from the nosewheel being left on they will now be pursuing disciplinary action (Section 18 and or termination) against the crew (CA & FO) along with the crew that left the nosewheel steering in the on position.

Yep. Instead of showing leadership, management is doubling down on fear and intimidation. Pilots are now taking pictures of flight deck switch positions as part of their post flight for fear of section 18. The union seems to be of the mindset that if you make a small mistake, you're on your own.
This is how toxic safety cultures are born. Hopefully they change tack before this place becomes dangerous.

there is some relevance to that
but.. This is obviously a systemic problem. It happens over and over and over again with lots of different crews. One solution is “how do we change the system so that the problems stop happening?” The other option is “lets keep the same system but threaten the people who operate it.” The latter choice is sometimes effective, but the former one is the better way to run an airline.

Commute from DFW
Just wondering if the commute to DCA, PHL, DAY, and CLT is pretty easy from DFW? Looks like a lot of flights on American to those locations. I would like to stay in Dallas and commute. I know life on reserve would be better in your domicile. However, really like the metroplex.
