The absolute best guys to work with are on their game, and secure with themselves. Laid back, knowledgable, willing to pass on the finer points.

On the other end of the spectrum are the A type dooshes that THINK they know everything, but don't, and they have to try to prove it to everyone else. These are the micro managers and are insecure with every little thing they do. Every leg is a grudge match with the agent or ATC. These are the kind of guys that are the genesis of the joke "bah, I'm on day 8 of 3".

That joke is about as fresh as the sushi in the jfk food court.
