Terminals and tower are great, the taxi and runways however, have as many patches and pot holes as the Van Wyck Expwy.

Have no problem with the long sleeves. I'm more concerned with the pilots that wear their sunglasses in the terminal, or while jump seating in a pax seat.

When I was an FO, I had a Captain tell me he was laid back. My first reaction without thinking was to say, "Oh sh**!!", out loud. I didn't mean to, but it just happened. He looked at me and with kind of a puppy dog face said, "No, really, I am." He wasn't.

Personally I can barely tell or hear a difference between five/fife or three/tree....never really wasted enough grey matter trying to pick apart the verbiage while laneling the communicator as a tool.
As an FO, it's particularly annoying when you fly with a captain one week who gives you the old eye roll for saying fife/tree/niner, and then fly with another captain a week later who gives you the same old eye roll for not saying that way.
I imagine the guys who pinch a loaf with the way you say the numbers 3-5-9 in an ATC transmission probably have a problem with the way their first officers do everything else.

If I remember correctly, after a while it was annoying to fly with ANY captain.

I just looked at him in disbelief and asked, "WHY are you wearing your Sunglasses, at night, INDOORS??"
He shruged, smiled and said, "Because, when you're Cool, the sun shines on you 24 hours a day."
Needless to say, we did not score any hot chicks that night!

Ha ha, yes, but this happened long before that song came along. I do like that song though. 
Oh, I forgot the best part, he was wearing tight pants and his shirt was unbuttoned to reveal his hairy chest, and a big gold chain.
Too bad the term -Tool- had not been invented yet, because this guy was a TOD no doubt.
