I then have the "pleasure" of them on the jumpseat conducting my annual line check, giving me (a 15,000 hour Capt) the "benefit" of their vast experience !
As someone who worked for many years in Neonatal Intensive Care [an area I'm sure you will all agree is also extremely stressful and meant I had the lives of others to protect] I have to say that your attitude worries me. I am aware that there are plenty of Know-Alls around and they can be particularly irritating especially when "giving [you] ..... the benefit of their vast knowledge" but you should never dismiss them out of hand or one day you may just miss the tiny, vital snippet of information which may save your life and those of your passengers. Just because someone has less experience, at least in time, than you do, doesn't mean they have nothing to offer. If you are that bothered about low time persons doing check flights why do you not become one yourself? My apologies if you already are.
