Flight deck crew do not work in exactly the same environment as the cabin crew, that is the difference.
I've flown transatlantic as a pax on the 767 and 777 and there is a tangible difference, a very great difference in how you feel at the end of the journey.

That statement demonstrates an ignorance of our job which is not uncommon behind the cockpit door.
Would you like us benchmarked to the cabin crew also?
