Maybe I’m easier than most, but I’ve had no problems with anyone, military or otherwise. Sure a few cases of arrogance and a sprinkle of entitlement from the other direction, but nothing that couldn’t be fixed with a roll of the eyes.
But some of the stories I read in here….if they are true….some guys think way too highly of themselves.
I feel like it’s an echo room of non military guys here…. Trust me as a mil guy I don’t want to hear your callsign etc... but it goes both ways. I don’t bring up my military experience and often get mistaken for a skywest pilot. My worst captain ever was all civilian tyrant that gave me ptsd back to upt days… (he’s gone now) Let’s keep the subject on how much of the contract that we need fixed and how far we can move the flag pole on pay rates.
