I think being an SO is all about the attitude. Just like Superfrozo said, it has to be like acid off a duck's back. If you can suck it up and bite your tongue for just six hours every three months or so, then you will be just fine. We do have some skygods left, but they definitely aren't the norm. The vast majority of guys I fly with are very sociable and they at least pretend to value your input. I was a jet captain before coming here. I have been flying for the last 10 years, and have done many a interesting aviation job. I LOVE THE SO GIG!!! It is like a three year paid vacation, minus the sims, which now seem to come every three months. Training must be busy!!
