i have fond memories (NOT) of being treated like that when i was an FO. Consequently, i am not fond of that system. Unfortunately it seems to have developed because new joiners are appearing with not much experience, and the training systems have been tweaked to focus on singing the company song, and therefore "appearing" to be competent.
Better to have someone with experience sat there in my humble opinion.
And yes Dan, i am commenting on this!
