Sharing Headsets

[slink]

As an ex BA engineer, I know the flight crew are expected to share headsets - in fact, we made sure of it by bolting the cables into the aircraft to stop them being removed! However, BA do supply a bag of antiseptic wipes on the flight deck to wipe the headsets, telephone handsets, and oxygen masks before flight. Before they introduced the ANR headsets, they even supplied spare foam mic & ear pads on the flight decks, for the same reason. Not sure if this was specified or written anywhere, maybe a BA driver will be able to help with more info?

What about the office pen? First shift spends the time cleaning out their ears with the pen and then the second shift spends the time sucking/chewing the same pen !

If any one "borrows " my headset I usually ask them if they have head lice?
They usually reply by saying no.
I respond by saying "well you do now !!! "
