If all crew were on 2000pm and "close to 900 hours" we probably wouldn't have a problem.
Are you not aware that a top scale Eurofleet CSD has a basic of £45,000 and does nowhere near 900 hours?
Who do you think does all those one sector days??
Stop worrying about pilots and take a closer look at your own collegues, they are the ones that should be making the sacrifice to prevent you from Having to.
Would you care to add an old contract CSD and Purser's earnings/hours to your little table to get a more balanced picture?. No, thought not.
