Don't know if that's true but not disagreeing with you.

However, do the go around before 1000' and you're not likely to get "the call" unless you bugger it up.

It's time to stop looking over our shoulders all the time and get on with the job, put the big boy/girl pants on and make some decisions. Combine experience and awareness or inexperience and suspicion (choose your own mix). Take the extra fuel if you need it, use the ALT button (380), tell ATC "no" if appropriate. We can't take charge of management but we can take charge of ourselves and the a/c.

I still love the job, just keep the office wallahs at arms length!
