He would have called himself an ER captain if actually Delta... Merkin calls it “767 international.”

I used to hang out with a bunch of ATL tower and Tracon controllers.

One of them once told me if a controller is ever a d***head to you, then ask them for a “time check”.

Has a way of turning their frown upside down!

Gives you a time hack to request the tape and make a complaint.

Or go full ICAO on them, and say "speak slowly, words twice".
