Cleaning Expectations (thats a key word)

All Pass Riding Crewmembers whether traveling for leisure, duty(in direct contradiction to the FOM) or commuting to work are expected to assist with cleaning the aircraft to speed the turn process.... Do not delay or impede the deplaning of customers when cleaning... Crewmembers failing to assist our inflight crew may be subject to suspension or loss of pass riding privileges, for up to one year.

looking for the must? I can't find it. We also have a definition of how much is required and it's De-minimis, so while up for interpretation, you go ahead and clean as much as you think is required.

But congratulations, you were right about less aircraft than expected this year.

ex·pec·ta·tion

noun
a strong belief that something will happen or be the case in the future.
"reality had not lived up to expectations"
a belief that someone will or should achieve something.

Seems like we tend not to meet expectations in many aspects around here.

1. Show me the manual that says "should"?

2. It is also in the manual that failing to clean may result in loss of travel benefits. What grounds would they have to take away your flight benefits if you only "should" (your word) clean? Because it's not "should", it's expected.

3. You are also expected to show up for your schedule on-time and you are expected to show up for your trips on a regular basis. Let me know what happens if you fail to meet those "expectations"?

Also, I believe an email recently used the word "required".
