They play the game during training, sim checks and line checks. But once out on line when they’re the most senior pilot on the flight deck and with no one watching them over their shoulder they unveil their true personality.

The Captain in question is reportedly undergoing an acrimoneous divorce from his wife' who is also a pilot.
That’s no excuse. Plenty of crew go through relationship dramas, but only those have existing personality issues let their personal dramas affect their work life. I’d wager his anger management issues probably were the prime cause of his divorce.
