Normally I'd say "don't feed the troll", but you've got me on this one...

Aviophage, I fly for one of the aforementioned airlines and I have a very nice secure job, thanks. Couldn't be happier with the way things are going, in fact.

Well, they're not really pilots -- they're button pushers!
Do expand on this a bit, if you wouldn't mind? I'd be delighted to hear your theories, it'd really give me a good laugh.

There was a BA jet which lost it's windscreen 20 years ago (but safely landed at Southend). The captain had to be held by some FAs as he was sucked out of the window when the windshield blew out.

Like I said, better to be safe than sorry.
If you re-read your post, what you're saying is that you're there with the captain hanging out of the window, FAs hanging on to his legs for dear life, depressurised cabin etc, and you're going to land because it's "better safe than sorry"?

Southampton. Southend. What's the difference?
The ability to know what you're talking about matters quite a bit if you're going to come on here and spout nonsense like you just have.

Hope your hangover clears up alright today.
