Reminds me of the time when the head ramper of our push crew came up to the cockpit to introduce himself and asked if we needed anything. The Captain was rude and acted like he was interrupting him, just kind of brushed him off. I felt so bad for the guy and tried to compensate by being overly polite but I could see by the look on his face and it was too late. What was the Captain doing for the last 10 minutes before the ramper came up that was so important that it couldn't be interrupted? I **** you not on his phone commenting on The Line probably saying how much those pesky FOs are on their phones all the time. I couldn’t upgrade fast enough after that 4-Day trip.

If i'm given the option to introduce myself to the Crew while DH'ing and exchange pleasantries, I absolutely will. It's an integrity move and it's great meeting other Crewmembers.
I've been fortunate enough to not run into any grizzled individuals that don't like this. These are the guys on the overnight with the Costco Jean shorts on and New balances that rant about the "Good Ol' Days."
