Then he waits until after you land and you are still doing over a 100kts and starts telling you to exit V2 join N and contact gnd on 121.7. Also he wants a immediate reply to the instructions all while you are trying to get the jet stopped and make the required PM cockpit calls. Really? he could not have told me on final plan a V2 exit from the RWY?
