Maybe then will young FO’s start to feel welcome at the company they’ve spent their whole life trying to get hired at.

Oh, and stop calling it at “jet.” It’s OK to go with the release just on the iPad, you don’t need all that paper anyway. Lay off the popcorn, those simple carbs are bad for you. Fox News is fake news and not everyone cares about your guns and Sean Hannity infatuation.

Stuff I've heard so far:

'Recorded for Social Media': Millennial FO sits down and pulls out Go-Pro camera, mounts it. Captain: "Ahh put that away." Millennial FO: "But I record all my flights!" Captain: "Not this one" (calls DO and has her removed from the trip)

'Gesture Bullying': Heard two versions: Millennial FO became upset because Captain was pointing at him/her too much (reasons unknown) and Millennial FO became upset because captain put his hand near the flap lever without being ordered to (more than once even!). Could possibly have both happened and be 2 x separate instances.

'Checklist Abuse': Millennial FO was PF and behind the airplane on arrival. Captain assaults FO in shoulder area with checklist, "Hey, how about the approach check??" Millennial FO is physically injured and demands mediated de-breif because he/she was "attacked in the workplace". Captain had to promise to stop hitting people with laminated pieces of paper.

'GET YOUR OWN MEAL, ***HOLE': Millennial FO refused to bring up both meals (when asked) because of, well....I don't really know.

'Its EUROPEAN!': Millennial FO had uniform pants tailored to resemble 'skinny jeans' (google it) and had shirt sleeves shortened to Terry from Reno 911 specs (Google "Reno 911 Terry", then click images). Another new FO with a comparable employee # + normal pants/shirt proceeds to chew him out for looking retarded and embarrassing all new hires in the AOC. Multiple pilots witnessed the event. Result/Consequences unknown at this time.

'UNRECEPTIVE': Captain was super super old (like more than 50!!) and on the way out, didnt give a **** so why argue? Millennial FO had a lot, I mean an awful lot, of suggestions. Old Captain didn't really listen and stared out the side window. Millennial FO: "YOURE BEING REALLY UNRECEPTIVE." Consequence unknown, assuming Captain retired or is dead.

'The Triple': Can PERSONALLY vouch for the validity of this one; I'm the one who reported it. 4 man, I mean "person" 777 crew in CAN. 3 old men + one young 'girl' (presumed gender unknown) with a bad haircut and puffy parka. The 3 x old dudes stood near the front desk and talked while they checked out, while Zhe stood off to the side and alone, gender excluded. Unsure if a formal complaint was filed on Zer behalf, so I filed one out moral responsibility.

This is it, boys. I don't want to live in Clown World. It's just not funny anymore.
