Chesty and BOAC I am enjoying your inputs as a blessed sigh of relief.
The longer you have been doing this job the more you are inclined to tolerate in silence.
I can't bear on average twenty or thirty intrusive point-scoring speedy-gonzalez "I've spotted something you haven't" mannerisms per sector demonstrated to me across the flight deck.
But I sit in silence.
Stroking my forehead.
My blood pressure steadily rising.
When will this agony end?
To those of you further on in your careers than I, perhaps nearing retirement, may I have some advice?
Does it get worse? How do you cope?
