Now... After you submit, is there anyway to go back and review? As I submitted before giving it a thorough spell and overall critique. Didn't know submitting seems to kind of lock you out from it. So, any way to review it now that anyone knows of?

How many of you guys still picking up trash and crossing seat belts? Either while working or commuting home. I've stopped and always fascinated by the response of me getting off the airplane without helping. Typically nothing but a smile and have a good day, other times a question as to why I'm not picking up trash.
Personal opinion is its insane we have pilots being a salmon upstream while passengers are exiting. Not only do I feel it's chaotic as people don't know what to do as you're running at them to get to the next row, I also feel it slows the whole process. I've also had a few people over the years I've been here ask why I'm picking up trash.
Culture - I get it, help out, absolutely. I always ask the FAs if they want anything and I always buy betwee legs. As for trash, shouldn't be mine or their responsibility.

The f1 is not supposed to leave the front during deplaning. Many will if one of us stands up to say goodbye. I've now made it part of the CAs preflight briefing, I'll tell the f1 I'm happy to help after people are off, don't swim upstream. I don't understand why this is such a big thing that we have to talk about all the time. Kinda like pilots complaining the f1 didn't get them water and a trash bag, it's not their job to do that. They ask in order to help out after their duties are done. Simple.

and the MEC has asked multiple times not to do it.
Pilots don't clean planes.

I love the 'I'm above everybody else' pilot mentality some people have. If you have the time, pax are off, why not give a hand to fellow coworkers? I won't swim upstream, neglect my job, or not run up to get a good cup of coffee, but if I'm just standing around while everyone else is busting their butts to turn the plane? Sure I'll give a hand. It's just called being a decent person and doing the next right thing.

Because it's not our job! They didn't ask me to clean airplanes during the interview. It wasn't in any of the indoc modules.
Bottom line is it's not even the FAs "job" but somehow it morphed into being that way under the guise of teamwork. AKA cheap won't hire cleaners to go through the plane.
