GOODONYAMATE.
Im tempted to say your name says it all.I was 21 when I started as a lowly F/O on $60 a week.By the time I was 25 I really started to dislike most LHS guys and resented having to 'carry" them so often (in my mind) only to realise later on that it was my CRM that was lacking.Your attitude spells trouble CRM-wise in the FD.
Once I became a big-jet PIC I welcomed all the help I could get from the RHS.Now im a TRE etc im shocked at the poor attitude of many of todays pilots.

Lastly, I challenge you to a duel in the SIM and lets see how the oldies compare to the top guns (you?), this rubbish about carrying a Captain is just well, rubbish.I would love to discuss your attitude when YOU are 65 and still flying....I think you will find that 99% of people evolve their attitude over time, Peter.
