For the record, I know 2 F/Os on our fleet that REFUSED Commanders Discretion citing reasons of fatigue (safety) and here's the results / consequences;
F/O 1 - Told by the Commander if he continued to feel this way, he (the Capt.) would be filling out a CAR expressing that the F/O was being uncooperative and as such, would be jeopardising a possible Command opportunity when it came time for The Star Chamber to sift through his file(s).
F/O 2 - Was called into the Chief Pilot's office for "tea 'n' bisquies" (I think he said Tim-Tams) and was 'advised' to consider "towing the Company Line as your Command is very close".
2 blokes speak up for feeling like shite at "oh-dark hundred" body clock time, and one gets called to the 3rd floor to explain himself.
What's your thoughts now Messiah ?
