  Giving a bonus based on number of sick days remaining sounds like a great way to have your pilots show up at work sick and spread it to co-workers. Genius.

  I used to have nightmares about being in a plane crash. Now when I have these nightmares, I scream: we&apos;re stalling! nose down! increase thrust! Thanks to this channel for adding technical detail to my nightmares.

  If they say you can call out of work for pilot fatigue, but then say your absence will be reviewed, they can&apos;t call this a &quot;no questions asked&quot; policy. A planned review is basically GUARANTEEING there WILL be questions asked.

  I work in sleep science, and I have heard experts in the field advocating that all, yes, /ALL/, people who work night shifts should get a risk bonus because of the toll it takes on their bodies. The difficulties and dangers of sleep deprivation and circadian misalignment are sadly too often underestimated

  I mean damn, did the two altitude call outs cost UPS an extra $399 per aircraft? Why the hell would they disable that?

  It blows my mind that the airline industry has standards for fatigue but not the medical industry.

  I worked night shifts for years and my biggest issue was people did not understand or respect that the day time was my time to sleep. Phone calls visitors and jobs around the home all used to inhibit my sleep. I do not work night shifts any more and feel much better for it. That UPS shift pattern is truly awful we are all but numbers in any industry put yourself and your family first. Be safe all and love to all.

  I&apos;m a software dev and a system admin. This morning I came in tired, having just got back from a lengthy business trip, then immediately screwed up by shutting down the incorrect server. A bunch of services were down for about 20 minutes and boss was NOT happy 😥. I don&apos;t think i would be able to operate in an environment where a mistake could literally cost you your life.

  One of the common themes in all of these crash investigations seems to be the first officers, unwilling to speak up when the captains doing things that are not correct or they are confused.

  That chess blunder from the beginning is from Fischer vs Spassky world championship match, game 1. Nice touch :)
