Also to the OP
Low seniority captain life is not fun. 2-2.5 years reserve at most junior base... longer for DFW.
Pretty much any QOL goes out the window due to staffing, getting JM, or just additional flying.
Unpredictable proffers for standby and RAP.
Fly with 50hr FOs that know nothing (some are great) and 900 hr FOs that think they are the captain and almost no in-between.
So, an actual serious question on here for once..... how do you keep a healthy CRM and a manageable team environment while also reminding the 3 1/2 stripe FO who the captain is?
Maybe worth its own thread..
