Because some of the NB ca’s think they are hot **** because they are a CA. Some have never been a ca before, not even at the regional level.
WB ca’s know better, been around for awhile, are not obessed with the “I’m in charge “ attitude and just fly from A to B and cash their wide body paycheck and don’t give a rats a$$ about the dumb crap like nb guys do .

there are a lot of WB CAs that jumped the trash bag and have never been a CA before. What’s your take on them?

Well, I’ve been on numerous WB aircraft over the years , deadheading, vacationing, etc and I have NEVER seen a WB ca make a galley or podium pa. I guess they are not attention wh0res like some NB guys.

Doing a galley PA in a WB isn’t feasible. The geometry of the interior makes it pointless. I have seen WBCAs come out and shake some hands in Polaris though.

I don’t understand why so many people are militant about the galley PAs though. The company says that they have data showing customer engagement helps the business. They ask us to do it. They don’t require it. If you don’t like doing them, then don’t (mostly I don’t), but back off the people that do.

Mostly agree…….. but cut back on the flair - lol
…… their jokes aren’t funny
…….Dangerzone music over the intercom is cringe
…….writing love notes to the First Class pax BEFORE your flight deck duties

Do the normal stuff and sit your happy a** back up there and go to work.
