It’s called respect and it is a professional title. It’s also earned. I think it’s weird that someone would call from a company, identify themselves as from the CP’s office, and not correct me. Then call me suspicious in an arrogant tone. Maybe nurses can start promoting themselves to doctor and replace that valve I need taken care of. A previous poster said it well when they described smug FO’s prancing around job fairs with an air of superiority while the Captains are chill and humble. Ze best were the Gulfstream FO’s in fitted shirts at S FL job fairs in the mid 2000’s.
