In my 24 years here, I've worked with several that come pretty close to fitting that description to a T.

As bad as that movie Pushing Tin was, the movie was inspired/based on real characters that worked in my area right here at the New York Tracon, and while Hollywood did add quite a lot of crap to it, many of the stuff in did actually happen. Our Union rep at the time was the ATC "consultant" for that movie, and yes, he will be forever blamed for that.
