Strongly disagree that anonymous bus drivers are what the passengers want. Net Promoter scores continue to prove passengers are impressed by Pilots that stand at the door after the flight. Furthermore, the score goes even higher when they come out of the cockpit before flight and greet the passengers.

One blurb I hope the company puts out soon is reduced PAs on flights with IFE. During deadheads I've noticed pax are visibly annoyed by long cockpit PAs after turning the seat beat sign off reaching cruise altitude. Folks are trying to enjoy their movie. IMO, FOM quiet hours policy should be 24/7 on all IFE aircraft.

Sounds like somebody needs a few days off. If you periodically unplug from the job, you'll find yourself less annoyed by the small stuff when you return.
Sometimes a "mental break" is what the doctor would order you to call in sick for.

It could be reiterated in QCQ, CQ and a mandatory bulletin and maybe radio ads during Rush and guys will still brief the 3 minute brief like its 1985.
I just dont know how you tell folks there is a tv screen in the back and they dont want to hear all that. Ridicule might be the best method.
Idk.

The problem is the same as with quiet hours, it has long been in the fom and long been ignored. Nothing better than on the 545am flying getting a 605am full brief on the route of flight and a promise to tell us more before we begin our descent which is in 30 minutes.

One solid push on the switch or button and the PA should be done in 30 seconds or less.
