Some of us, including some of my colleagues at UAL as well, get lazy and stop being captains and let others operate our plane for us and dictate everything to us.
Quite a few guys, have been commuters, most will go out of their way to get non-revs onboard, I have. If you get lazy about non-revs, other stuff isn't far behind, being a Captain means you have to know what is in your wheelhouse and what isn't. 20 years later I still go up into the gate area to check for JSers.
