I’m obviously too suspicious for for an airbus with cute animals airbrushed on the tail and the FO who identifies as a CP. Nothing more to tell. I didn’t go to the interview. The original Frontier post jogged my toolbank memory. Were you the FO that called me and I called you Captain and you didn’t correct me? Call me back, I’ll call you a tool if you want.

FO from CP office was a Tool. He probably has a koala painted on his Hyundai to match “his” A320.
I'll tell you what I find suspicious and potentially tool worthy... your apparent disdain for a mere, lowly, mortal FO calling you from a company you expressed interest in and asking some very reasonable questions about an applicant who doesn't "fit the norm". I guess I have to wonder how you would live with yourself if you somehow made it through the interview and landed a job there as an FO. The self-loathing every time you saw those three stripes could be crushing.
