Try calling fatigued or writing SMS reports, twice in a row at an airline like Fly Dubai. Heck, even at Emirates or Ryanair!
Although this very well prepared crash investigation report paints a perfect picture of a total incapacitation due to pilot pushing and chronic fatigue.
Currently a high court case in Dublin Ryanair v Peter Bellew form COO is quoting "a climate of fear among pilots" denied by Mr O' Leary. But it is being mentioned in court. Watching with interest. Court case going on 3 days already and three to go next week.
