When someone introduces themself as their callsign, it’s a far more apparent identifier than long sleeve shirts or “so I ‘m laid back” that it is gonna be a long trip.

Hahaha!

He is definitely not alone. I have met several of his co workers who do exactly that same thing.

I don’t do it, and I really don’t care and wouldn’t bent out of shape about it. but depending on the callsign I don’t think it’s that big a deal. Like a maverick or Hollywood type thing is stupid. Or the Air Force ones like Lazer, or Blazer, or Gazer.
But a smitty, or jonesy or Tex wouldn’t bother me. Even if Tex is from Detroit
