It's amazing to me that you find so many people that you hate when the majority of the pilots like almost everyone they fly with. When you're the 1% you're the one who is the problem, not the rest of us.
I actually have enjoyed CCB's post on the internal forums when he participated more. Never flown with him, and I don't think I would have a problem since I never pretend to be doing anything other than my job and willing to do things the way the Captain wants. Would I do things different? Perhaps, but until I take the plunge, I will continue to learn from all the different CA's I fly with and use that knowledge someday.
Funny thing is there is a notorious CA that is #1 bid avoid in my domicile. When I got a trip with him, I was so freaked out by the stories I had heard. Did the trip and he was actually a decent guy. Can I see why everyone bid avoids him? Yep, and I probably wouldn't pick up an OT trip with him but that is just because there are lots of CA's that I enjoy flying with and would pick up a trip with them first.
Bottom line is that while it may be a little extreme, CCB speaks the truth or at least he speaks about what he sees.
