im not going to put words in his mouth. But if a half winger has the balls to look at their CA and say I don’t work tell I get to the airplane, puts earbuds in and walks away….im fairly certain there is going to be other attitude problems, professional problems and the pilot will most likely be behind in the operation, during the flight and the aircraft.

Some of these old bid avoid captains (and they are at every airline) need to figure out the pendulum swings both ways nowadays. You can’t act like a jacka$$ to your FO under the guise of “mentoring” and consider it a get out of jail free card, especially if you are using it as a tool to leave negative feedback etc...

You're correct, 99% of FOs will just cooperate to graduate and once they realize that captain anal wants them to analyze the flight plan before they even get to work, they'll do it...but the whole idea is insane to me and I'm sure most of your FOs are thinking the same thing. (Admittedly I'm DL and maybe it's a UA culture thing, so I'll just drop it 😂 )
Is it only Delta that has a large majority of anal captains? All the Delta FO's are hip and laid back? If you're a di**/anal as a FO, you will probably be a di**/anal captain.
Thanks for your insight, now go back to Delta and quit trolling.

Was in the Caribbean, heading to EWR. On the van, CA pulls up the info. He mentions EWR is doing the whole circle to 29 thing due to the winds. Says we'll have to do all the briefings for that, etc.
Did I mention we were in the Caribbean? And that we're on the van? ETA is still like 4-ish hours away? Good thing he's getting spooled up NOW.
And, as everyone can guess, we weren't doing 29 when we arrived......
But man, good thing he was so ahead of the game.
