The question I have is how was this pilot allowed to breeze through to the plane instead of being stopped, reprimanded, and immediately replaced? There was another incident recently with a couple of drunken pilots almost ready to take off and kill themselves and a whole bunch of passengers. Why are the airlines not taking more precautions after these reports become public knowledge? I think from what I read she didn't have the meltdown until she boarded the plane.

If you've mid flight and only 3,000 feet, there were other problems going on. 3,000 might be right though if you had just taken off and were heading over the ocean and ascending.
