Hmm sounds like someone has an axe to grind... if it REALLY were that bad, and at that time of morning when DJ crew are more than aware to keep the tone professional and friendly, then a complaint should be made to the company. DJ crew have been informed long ago that all safety-based announcements are "no-go" areas - they are to be given exactly as scripted; and to use discretion when having a laugh with the pax (ie 7am is clearly inappropriate).

As for the window blinds, well thats DJ policy - so the crew can check the outside conditions before commencing an evac should it be required - have you ever tried to look out the window of a B737 cabin door? They are miniscule! (although perhaps this reasoning could have been described somewhat more subtley) - no apologies being made for that.
