Uh ... yeah, duh! Music is for the passengers to enjoy and relax with. If you want to relax stay home by the pool, you have a serious job to do now buzzie. Time to grow up!

It's for passengers to relax? Get over yourself. What exactly do YOU do during the other 42 minutes? Or does it take you that long to get the atis?

I usually like to do a 30 minute take off briefing and spend the remaining 12 minutes confirming our route with a highlighter on the paper high enroute charts that I clip onto my trifold kneeboard.

Reckless!! Before I even ask the captain do the preflight because wing stop made my tum tum hurt, I spend most of my time doing radio checks on ALL the frequencies at DFW on my hand held radio

Oh I do all of my radio checks on my personal time. I like to volunteer my free time to Mesa by doing tasks like these. I figure it's the least I can do for such a generous company.

Lol this reminds me--I saw an FO running in the airport a month or so ago--I stopped him in his tracks and said "NO RUNNING--NO." He was like "but our inbound was late and I want to..." and again I said "NOPE--NO RUNNING."

Same thing with "helping" with valet bags, taxiing too fast to "help" people make their connections, etc.--someone should send a memo saying "if you are not trained or required to do something in the GOM/CFM/FARs, STOP DOING IT." All of these people "helping out" are exposing the company to liability and potential OJIs. If you flew profile/Econ Speeds and people still miss their connections and/or wait too long for valet bags, then our very profitable legacy partners should adjust the flight schedule or hire more rampers--stop going outside of your job description.
