YES, YOUR FLIGHT ATTENDANTS DO THIS!!!
along with placing the passenger safety card in the front of the all the other goodies in your seatback pocket, close the window shades, and cross seatbelts. Obviously when we are short on time and are late in somewhere this can't all be done without further delays. This is where this phrase comes in. We simply pick up the trash and get off QUICK!
However, this phrase does NOT ever refer or should refer to passengers. I recently had a flight from LAX-LAS on our Delta carrier. This is a no service flight in coach because it's a quick 30 minute flight. We do a service in first class and that's all. I'm pretty good about keeping an eye out on the rest of the cabin with frequent walk throughs to monitor. Nothing, I mean absolutely nothing was abnormal. We weren't even half full. So you're talking maybe 35 adults on this flight going into Las Vegas and this is what was left on our aircraft:
UUUUUUUUGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHhh!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
They shredded a newspaper into tiny little pieces and left in all over the floor. Then that little bottle of water that is in the seat...see that? Yup, dumped all over the seat. They DUMPED it ALL over the damn seat! Are you a 5 year old?!
This was soo frustrating. It's soo disrespectful. We work under very different conditions and it's part of of the job and part of the industry but it doesn't change the fact that you would not want someone to come into your "office" and leave a mess like that! It's sad what our species has become. We are lazy and ungrateful. we are coming soon to the terms where there will be an app for everything. There is not one for personal cleaners.
