He is talking about a stand up, facing pax from the front of the cabin PA announcement with the same speech and jokes you have to listen to during a 4 day trip.
On a recent commute on us, the CA was at the door at boarding, helping people to their seats, gate checking bags!! and wanted go be the hero retrieving a left behind laptop at TSA. He was pushing wheel chairs upon arrival and had blue gloves on before I even got out of my seat. He was a check airman, but clearly also wants to be a FA, gate agent and wheelchair pusher.
Utter embarrassment! Have some f'ing pride in your profession!
