My "sad bar stewards" comment was not directed at the police, or indeed a colleague having a quiet word with someone (or even intervening via the company) if someone is quite obviously incapable.
The comment was directed towards anyone working in a hotel ( as howflytrg suggested )who thinks it is part of their normal job description to report aircrew behaviour to either their employers or any authority without full knowledge for instance of whether the crew getting tanked up till 4 in the morning just " might " be positioning back at 7 the next morning hence their "excessive" behaviour. I am fed up with everyone thinking that being in this profession equates to being answerable to everyone who wants to stick their nose into your business ENOUGH I say.
