I flew with someone like that in my previous life.

Flew with a guy a few weeks ago that insisted on hand-flying up to the hand-off to the second ATL center frequency every leg, which just happens to be the perfect way to maximize the workload on the FO.
Not that the job is that hard..., but it was kind of a pain, relatively speaking.

Gray hair is dignified and looks more appropriate on a Captain.
