I was sitting by the bar in the pub tonight and over heard a conversation of a guy sitting next to me who was talking very loudly. He was slagging off his first officer to a friend who was not a pilot, telling him how good he was and how poor the first officer was. It went on for ages. How his FO lacked skill and judgement and how he had to take over .Spoke quite loud, new everything done everything. Then he started on about how the company had employed a ' girl' She went very well at the interview but they should have listened to him as it was obvious she was going to be a waste of time.
He did not know he was being overheard by two pilots sitting also along the bar, we both felt very embarrassed by his arrogance and attitude. I didnot want to sit listening to him so we moved, pity his first officer cannot do that in the cockpit.
