PJ - You have it. Furthermore, I would be worn out if I had to control, double-check, monitor, observe, oversee and discuss everything that went on as some appear to do. Also, my attention would be stretched beyond capacity so I could do none of the above. And if that is the job of the captain, then I'm doing it wrong and have been doing so for years. But I shall continue to do things the way I do because things get done properly around me. I'll stick to the SOP's and the rules and try to keep all the work we have to do in small, bite size chunks enabling everyone to keep up and do their own jobs. But soon as anything strange appears in the horizon, I and my crew will start looking in that area.
