dynamite dean,
Itīs very good that you made this post and I think that many of us who have flown in a multi-crew concept can recognize this case. This is clearly a flight safety hazard.
Please, make sure you inform your company of this before any incident or acccident will happen as a result of this Captains behaviour. You should have a Safety Program (according to JAR-OPS for an AOC holder) in your company and a Safety Pilot. In this Safety Program you can make an safety report without having your name on it (if you feel this will endanger your future in the company). All deviations from SOP and "potential danger situations" should be reported.
Please step forward and report this to the Safety Pilot/Chief pilot/Quality Manager in the name of Flight Safety. Donīt accept it, bring it to the attention for the safety pilot before an incident or accident will happen in the interest of your own safety, passengers safety and your company!
Then, the reason for the Captain to behave like this can be many, wrong/bad attitude, training, company training, donīt like to fly in multi crew concept, donīt have an understanding of the intention of a company SOP etc......
Good Luck
