The F/O who wants to spend the whole leg from PHX to IAH telling me how his divorce went down, why she cheated and why he wants to remarry her and how government is evil, taxes are too high, liberals are wrong, and Sarah Palin and the Tea Party are the future of the right.
Dude, all I want to do is read the paper and play Angry Birds.

TOTD better than 20 years of Recurrent CRM
My Tooldar has been operating on +8 since this thread started.
Unfortunately for me, I've noticed myself here probably 10 times. The guys I've been flying with have been total non-tools.
I even feel guilty for peaking out the blinds until my Milfalicious next door neighbor get's home before I fly out the door in my uniform (with hat) to "check" the mail.
B@stards.

This actually happened to a colleague of mine:
He was the F/O and non-flying pilot working the radios. ATC says, "Say type aircraft..."
The captain immediately says to the F/O before the latter can answer ATC, "Boeing 737."
Gee, thanks...

On that note, not sure if it qualifies as toolish, but when one pilot asks to verify a radio call from ATC the other pilot will start talking over the ATC when they read back the clearance. Personally never understood that, I mean I already asked ATC to repeat themselves, so what is the use in repeating what you heard the first time.
