So much minor stuff happening these days that has been happening for years and getting horrific reactions from pax and the media, then they bitch on the other hand about the money flight crews are paid. Most of this crap is routine and trained for by the crews as a regular happening, rather than a breathless, near death experience as is often described.
A "mayday" is NEVER a minor thing. Loss of control over flight control surfaces that requires an aborted approach is a significant problem and not "routine". I have also rarely, if ever, heard complaints about flight crew pay.
I would agree that Mayday is not a minor thing, but in listening to the ATC on the link below, I didn't hear MAYDAY. I heard an aborted approach and put me out over the lake to clean up and figure out what's going on but he didn't really seem panicked. As far as the pay, you just haven't listened much.
