Reminds me of this TUI 757 driver crabbing it in during a previous nasty UK winter storm.
She did a better job and still faced some criticism for not aborting/diverting, and the (completely fine) technique:



Though at least in her case, admin seized on the opportunity with a public "atta-girl" instead of a reprimand (who knows what was said behind closed doors).
And to be fair, the Etihad 380 drivers' reprimand was never intended to be public.
