You're right 7700, he should have worded it differently.

The point people from "the dark ages" of fifteen years ago are making is that conditions have improved. Today we have four pilots sharing the rest instead of three, flying in a VHF and CPDLC environment. So those of us who are relics from the past can't help but be ammused at some of the whining we read here.

The captain will always pick his rest. That's just the way it is... And always will be. Most guys are fair and decent about it. A few are jerks. That too will never change.
