Great point, Dwayne. Thanks for sharing! Along with that, the other thing we need to consider is how important it is that if the junior crew member has concerns, they need to speak up. All too often it seems that we respect seniority so much that if our more senior partner says it is "just a psych patient" or isn't anything to be concerned about that the senior gets their way even if the junior has a genuine and legitimate concern.

I have tried to instill this in all my partners. If they see something say something. Sometimes its not even the senior thing. Hey we all get tired and might overlook something even obvious.
