look it’s all about mindset…..neither the ones that wait tell the airplane or the ones that look at the hotel are correct. All that matters is on time.
I look at it at the hotel and work everything out with dispatch before the van then have a very quick and casual convo in the van. I do this so we are never rushed. I hate being rushed and it is because of Jackass United and Continental CAs that never prepare until they are in the seat and then expect me to do everything to get the flight out and then mentor me on how I’m not moving fast enough.
if you you don’t want to talk tell we are in the seat that is fine but we better be on time. I will never rush you and if we are late we will talk about it. If we are consistently late then we will have a convo about professionalism.
do your job however you like but do it well.
