I have to agree with all of the above!!! Mind you I don't mind being called "Eng" (Been called worse, by better)
The un written snag is one of my pet hates. One of the airlines I deal with are particularly bad at that. They usualy tell the passenger staff. So I get:
"The pilot says some thing about the.... what was it now?..ohhh... the something valve on the engine light went on....or was it off? But he didn't put it in the book"
So I smile and say I'll deal with it, go into the cockpit look for a big red flashing light or a EICAS message saying "Land NOW" If there is nothing amiss I forget about It!
Funnily enough that airlines crews like leaving the radar switched on too.

P.S. I agree with TURIN write eveything down, it keeps me in a job!
