Glorified bus drivers!!!!, you want a professional's pay, be one by training and acting like one, how can you compare yourself to a doctor, accountant etc when a high school graduate can do your job. Do not flatter yourself, if you do not like your job, QOL, etc, stop whining and quit your job...
Being responsible for all the actions during the flight is the reason why you are called a Captain, your years of experience as an FO should have prepared you for this position that is if you were not just upgraded due to company shortage or for some other selfish reason like aspiring to start...
Inthegoo, it is rather unfortunate that this incident happened and will be filed with the FAA but on the other hand I believe this will be a learning experience to catch/correct such mistakes in the future, thanks for sharing.
