Don't know the Captain mentioned here but the "clever" spoonerism of his name leads me to comment on the practice of name calling which seems to be prevalent in dealing with industrial matters. I did consider putting this in the Fragrant forum but it has application in other cases.
When management calls you glorified bus drivers AND YOU RESPOND in kind they have suceeded in diverting you from the task in hand. It is a practice almost universally adopted these days and originated very many decades ago. IGNORE IT! Stick to the facts of your case.
Likewise name calling as in the above posts and others is, quite frankly, childish and plays into the hands of management. It only reduces your credibility as the mature individuals people expect to be in command and operating the airliners they travel in.
'nuff said!
