This is the most accurate thing about that SOB ever posted.

Pretty much how my one and only use of ProStands went at Brand X, along with an apology from the then-chair that the case was not resolved.
I had an non-training "incident" involving an instructor and the company said something to the effect of that he would ever be in a position to train or evaluate my performance for the entirety of my career. But he got himself fired anyway, so oh well.

I loved how he always claimed everyone else was non standard. I think I saw a Snapchat from him ranting about procedures one day. O wait, wrong person.

My only time calling ProStandz I barely got to finish my sentence and the rep’s words,” Are you flying with XXXXXX? We already can figure what happened.” Amazing, he was pretty much spot on.

Why are some pilots this difficult? Being a 121 F/O for over 10 yrs before being able to upgrade, I learned a lot of good things from many good CAs, but there many examples of stupid crap I learned that I would never do as CA.

It almost always comes down to insecurity. Either with life, or they’re just crappy pilots.

Usually both, and there are some giveaways. When someone starts their brief with, "some of my pet peeves are (THINGS THAT HAVE NOTHING TO DO WITH THE OPERATION, OR MY JOB, BUT YOU'RE ABOUT TO TELL ME HOW EVERYTHING AND EVERYONE DOES IS WRONG AND YOU ARE GOD)" followed by "and I'm pretty standard."

I remember having one CA brief being a very laid back guy (hint: if you have to brief you're laid back, YOU. ARE. NOT). Then in the first ~45 minutes in the flight deck before even push back, he proceeded to be the most un-laid back guys I've ever seen. Things like yelling at ops, catering, getting hissy with Dispatch and fuel load.
Sheesh, if that's you at your "laid back" , I'd hate to see your serious side.

Yeah yeah yeah...I definitely didn't come up with the term. If it were up to me we would call them ass@#$£€s.
Edit to add: I know we can totally say "ass" on here. I didn't realize adding the "hole" on the end would #trigger the filter. Maybe I will try "wipe" next time.
I believe the FAA approved term is "ass hat"

That’s the bonus of long sleeves. They serve as a warning sign.

I'm glad we agree on this point.
