Sad but true.
Some of the biggest pricks you will ever fly with are from OZ & I'm from Oz so I'm allowed to say so.
I remember being verbally abused for 20 minutes on the way to Inchon one day.
B777 approaching cloud "engine anti ice on", came out of cloud "engine anti ice off" as we did in the old procedures.
Well slap me silly you'd think I'd just tried to steer it into a mountain.
"You don't have the big picture, what are you doing? are you even thinking ahead of the aircraft? there's more cloud coming up soon! Why did you turn it off? did you consider just leaving it on??
1.) No A-hole I didn't consider leaving it on as the cloud is about 30 miles away
2.) Even if I did forget it's a 300 million dollar plane and it knows perfectly well when to do it itself.
3.) Change Of Procedures - "Engine Anti Ice Stays In Auto" just like the people who made the thing recommended in the first place.
My head is starting to hurt from banging this brick wall
