Cleaning a couple of rows on a DH is like a pilot who buys coffee for the FAs on every turn, they soon expect it from every pilot. And the company will continue to expect it if people are doing it.
I’m sorry, but short of you making the mess yourself, stop cleaning up any rows. It was said the company is not enforcing this policy for deadheads, but I guarantee they might if FAs start complaining that pilots DH’ing aren’t cleaning a couple rows like Boomer does.
I mean, WTF, cleaning the plane after deadheading?! No F way.
Yeah, I don’t see the point of helping with cleaning up the cabin. Might as well head down to the ramp and toss a few bags on the baggage cart too. And while you’re doing that, the FAs can hop in the cockpit and start getting the plane set up for the next flight by grabbing the ATIS and reviewing the flight paperwork. We all have our roles in this field and if one is unhappy with their role, they should pursue a different role.
