The guy being a dumb*** is only a reflection on his own personal character and attitude, not the guys that trained him. There are bad apples in every tree. If he has any sense of humility, he'd pick up on the fact that he doesn't know anything and learn from the more experienced people around him at the FBO.
Unfortunately, we work in an industry that attracts some of the most arrogant people alive.
Fly safe and remain teachable.
