Personally, I was a 500-hr newbie in the RJ when my first Captain off IOE took the walk-of-shame. Didn't even phase me in the least (actually remembered enjoying it - smiled a lot to myself LoL), but I never even thought about it until I read your post. I wonder - what do most low-timers feel like as the sole manipulator in a case like that??
