@imustbemad : Your little dig about signing the bill at least 8 hours before sign on is a clear dig at the two pilots who were "dismissed" earlier this year in a "related" incident. You do ALL 1time pilots a discredit by trying to justify the behaviour of the two concerned people, and to try insinuate that the incident was related to layover times being too short.

They dont leave because they cant
