What I find fascinating in a weird way is that we have so many more unpleasant types in the right seat than the left seat which is contrary to my three previous airlines.
My best guess is that it’s due to the repetitive and mind-numbing nature of our flying and the long upgrade times. Simply put, FOs are ready for upgrade years before they get the chance to.
Oh for sure. FO’s have to be chameleon’s…and it starts to get old after 5-6 years. The CA flows, etc are much simpler, but you guys have to deal with more BS from MX, PAX, Ops since nobody really cares what we think unless the CA isn’t there or everyone is trying to get on the same page for CRM reasons.
After your 3rd walk around and airplane set up of the day while the CA goes off to poop and get a coffee…your eye starts to twitch when he shows up and asks why everything isn’t done yet. 99% of the people I’ve flown with here are awesome…it’s just the 1% that makes me want to use the escape rope to run away.
