IFR/Flight Following -- ATC Preferences?

He delayed his departure for the next morning?
He offered some poor starving CFI to go with him for a price?
He put the wing leveler back on his a/p when he started his descent?
He followed the coastline and flew to HYA and waited for the morning?
He followed the coastline to HYA and took a ferry?
He hadn't just had a cast off, was tired? was perhaps taking painkillers?
How many martini's did he have at lunch?

It would have adversely impacted his ego.

Ego gets people killed.
