Managers Perspective,
CC sitting by the door in the last few mins of a 20-hour duty; slightly dozy as the a/c taxis onto stand. Misses the doors-disarm announcement and forgets to disarm slide.
Door is later opened whilst a groundie stands outside on stairs (opener assumes door disarmed and neglects to check). Bam! Groundie is knocked backwards by inflating slide. Falls down stairs and dies from head injuries.
Leaving aside the human factors aspects of any member of crew being awake and on duty for the better part of 20 hours, you'd be happy for a person who's just worked that long straight to perhaps be heading, on their drive home, towards a zebra crossing which your kids are negotiating at the time?
Your comment about the skipper's coffee or a scotch is a cheap shot which says far more about you than the crew you are attempting to belittle with such comments. Comments like that only demonstrate that the 'manager's perspective' is to denigrate employees at all possible opportunities. Without those employees, you'd have nothing to "manage". A good manager knows the value of their employees and seeks to build them up, not engage in the sort of tear-down you've exhibited here.
