[QUOTE="BlackBluenBrown, post: 730622, member: 29301"] [SIZE=2]OK, yes the bulkhead door open is a minor infraction, but 10 days? That’s a stern warning for the first offence. Maybe a one day if it was flagrant (not a side street), but 10 days? I see guys with the door open all day long, but they are fast so no one says anything except close the door.
