Maybe worth its own thread..
i have had 2 "senior" fo's that were dicks. the first when I was new sub 100 hrs in type and company and the 2nd was more recent.
The first i had to have a team chat with and let him know i valued his experience but i was responsible and he should speak up if anything is unsafe or not sop.
the second, i was PM and he called for flaps up in a bank right at acceleration in light to moderate at about 150kts, I delayed until he rolled out and put them up. He claimed i didn't understand maneuvering speed while at about 1000ft and tried to explain it... and i told him to shut up and fly.
