Controller tried telling him as soon as traffic was out of the way he would climb him.......he still argued.....and also foreign

TOTD - guys who slot everyone based on their interaction with some. That butt hurt mentality is just as hard to live with.

An extreme example. Drinking post flight beers after day 2 of 4 with an older FO I'd never flown with. Turns out we mutually knew another good guy CA who was texting him the standard buddy insults when he saw we were flying together. He shows me the text string and I ask why our mutual friend kept calling him "General". He humbly replies, "well, err, I was one and just recalled after retiring off active duty in USAF (Guard to active)
He had also flown F16's/Vipers/Falcons/Lawn Dart or whatever you call that cool little thingy. He was also a 2 Star. He acted like any other co worker without the slightest hint of airs or arrogance.
