Genuinely sorry you feel that way. I have yet to see this guy respond to any of us pointing out that the passengers and union don't want to see it.
Those situations I mentioned are all real-life examples of things I've had happen in the operation (all on the 190). In every case, at some point after the situation was resolved I've taken a quiet moment (cruise, waiting on the contract guy to show up, etc) to ask the other guy "hey, next time let's stay on task with our attention to this stuff rather than pitching in back there, huh?" (MEL review, catching the dispatch errors, getting the walkaround done sooner than 10 minutes prior to departure, etc). I have yet to have any response other than usually some sheepish, "you bet, sorry, good point, D'oh"....
If on the contrary one of these internet hotheads wants to run the "don't tell me what to do" table, you bet Pro Stans would be the next step. I'm honestly curious, why do you view that as a threat and what step would you take instead?
