If he put "hey our the bids out?" and "when's the next AE?" at the frequency in which they're asked around here the thing would have been one of the longest posts ever.

Capt. Putin appears annoyed that his FO forgot to cancel the low oil pressure caution light after being told to shut down two on taxi in.

I wonder, if Captains hate that light so much, why don't they quit looking at it.
