Prancers and dancers are the guys/gals who long ago vanished into the sims and come out only in day VFR to fly a trip. They can fly the sim with one eye closed counting the number of trim 'dits' needed to fly a perfect 45deg steep turn. Sorry.. probably an old term.
and yes, companies do have a published set of ethics but some check airmen spend more time telling you what you did wrong than pointing out what you did right, how errors were caught and mitigated, etc. I liked to ask the crew to debrief me on what went right, wrong and what could be improved. More often than not more learning took. After all, most guys/gals know what happened. Why play games?
