One or two of these things here and there and I don't even blink an eye. When it's a pattern of single pilot kernal douchery, it makes an easy trip downright loooonnngggerrrrr.

Blaring crappy music or crappy sports at the gate between legs... the list goes on and on. Just as many hard to deal with FOs as captains. Fortunately it's still a small percentage.
That’s all interesting stuff. DJ- ing the boarding process on the Bluetooth speaker bugs me a little bit too. Haven’t flown with anyone yet I wouldn’t fly with again. Right now, it’s rare to be with the same captain for more than a few legs anyway as we all get shuffled through the scheduling sodomizer.
