That part of the story seems hard to imagine, though I didn't fly with the widebody CA's.
Never ran into anyone like that, unless it was a new Captain on the LCO side. Really have trouble seeing how someone would act like that, I am sure on the the F/O's would have SPOKE up!
The story sounds like a sour grapes F/A. I have seen them NEVER call the cockpit ONCE in over a 4 hour PERIOD! and that was during an ALL nighter to South America. I have even seen them eat the Cockpit's Breakfast's!
