Okay, how about this one a few years ago. It's my leg. There is a bit of green "clutter" on the radar but nothing too bad. We had asked for a heading and I liked where we were headed. The conversation continued like this.
Capt: "Hey do you mind coming about two degrees left?"
Me: "Two degrees, huh?"
Capt: "Yes two degrees."
Me: "Okay boss, you got it."
After less than a minute on that "new" heading, the conversation then went like this.
Capt: "Hey do you mind coming two degrees right?"
Me: "So you want me to come two degrees right, to counter the two degrees left you asked me to go less than a minute ago?"
Capt: "I guess I am picky."
He actually was a fairly nice guy, but let's just say he at least admitted his quirk!
