You probably are not alone.
Absolutely 100% certain I would not be stupid enough to tell CC the full details and then expect it to remain quiet.
That strikes me as this gent's second mistake. (The first was not being mindful of his duty status).

Own goal, in any event.
I agree; his lack of judgement and lack of responsible thinking while at work - given his job - is what is really worrying about this.
Indeed. The "first mistake" I allude to up there.
Is seems very odd to me that someone clever enough to pass an ATPL course and the British Airways pilot assessment process would almost immediately engage in such questionable behaviours and substances - and do so while actually being at work, (as opposed to privately at home). How many other young new pilots share this mindset?
Personnel departments in most airlines may wonder that as well.
