If someone is new to United, and unsure of reporting requirements, it is wise to speak to a knowledgable APLA supplied SME for guidance rather than ask for un-vetted internet advice of dubious origin due to the reduced contractual protections and experience with CM for newhires.

Cue the doom and gloom projections!

I wasn’t going for the movie reference...but that’s okay. In a round about sort of way, I was trying to say it might of been a crazy move.

I thought it was a callsign reference. I didn't think about the movie until Worst brought up Francis.

Well that’s how it started...actually knowing someone referred to as Psycho. The comment was intended for you and WP moved it in a different direction.

As an insurance policy?? Huh? Care to elaborate?

There are high paying jobs overseas for type rated pilots with PIC time. A320 is in high demand. Does it hurt to have a backup plan if something bad happens in the industry domestically?

It was tongue in cheek. Its happened before, it could happen again.
