You are absolutely correct that your job isn't to be "fun" to fly with, but it is your job to manage a coherent team and fostering an effective environment for task sharing, threat and error management...etc Quite frankly you sound like someone who seems to think it's a single pilot operation and loses the crew from the very minute you show up at dispatch.
There's no doubt that experience in the cockpit is vital for safety, but I would say it's equally dangerous when you have a senior pilot who shows nothing but utter contempt to junior crew, the type of cockpit gradient that results in no-one willing to engage in the operation and speak up.

I was told a long time ago that part of the assessment process of selecting pilots was an easy thought process of "Can I sit next to this person for 6+ hours?". Judging by your comments on here and your attitude towards junior crew, I can only assume that years of cx have soured your character, or that you were an excellent actor.
