What would you do??

You are a FO and the Capt starts to repetitively kick hard on the rudder pedals to make the CC working in the galley fall. All this whilst cruising FL 410 at Mach .79!!
Just imagine how would it feel at the very rear of the aircraft. Tell me about metal fatigue after the rather big rudder on a B737NG gets exposed to that tremendous air loads not to mention the cables moving it.
On another occasion and out of being bored, he starts swinging the control column back and forth to give a turbulance effect. so much for passenger comfort.
It's really sad that after reporting this to the Chief Pilot no action was taken other than a written notice to the roastring dept. saying not to schedule them together... But that Capt still does these foolish acts.
