Do you wait till you are clear to turn off the lights? Most FO’s use that as their cue.

No, they don’t. I don’t touch any switches until past the hold short line. These FOs put flaps up before my hand even moves up to the light switches.

Sad. Simple discussion should be sufficient.

I might just make it part of my first briefing on every trip since probably 70% of them do it.

DFW is a pain the a55. The ridiculous amount of radio flipping is just asking for violations and/or runway incursions.

You ever land on the E-W runway in IAD? I think I talked to more ground freqs getting to the FBO than ATC getting there crossing half the country.
