Was it not your late employers who set up a system of negative checks from Cabin Crew?
For the understanding of others, there was NO landing check, for instance, given to Flight Deck as long as all was well in the cabin. This procedure was introduced at a time when Ops management was particularly cavalier and was only rescinded as an SOP under extreme pressure from the CAA.
Whilst not liking it, the Pilots meekly accepted this state of affairs!
