i fly SIC for a charter company, and have a captain that is always, always bugging me to ask ATC for HIGHER, DIRECT, etc...i mean it's a constant nagging kind of thing. does that kind of thing bug the living crap outta' ya?? personally, i'm pretty much under the impression ATC understands that we would like to get to our final cruise altitude asap, and also direct whenever we can get it...so unless i feel its a weird situation i wont bother ATC. drives me nutts just being prompted every 20 seconds to ask for higher, etc...am i missing something, is what the capt is doing "normal"??
