It’s not hard to keep your nose clean on probation.
OK haven't heard about this one, or is this connected to the fight mentioned above?

Don't hire a hooker, refuse to pay her and get arrested on your first (and last) IOE layover.

That didn't get him fired.

Arguing with the SDF chief pilot and another ACP at the same time about it did.

Was this in Manas a few years ago? I didn’t think that was OE though. Didn’t the captain bail him out via ATM withdrawals?

I have heard it’s nearly evenly split 50/50, so half commute. It would differ based on domicile though.

Never a good career move to make a better landing than the captain, especially a training captain.
