Ever since they increased the monthly hours in 2009, on the tractor I never had more than 11-12 off on the Boeing. NEVER ever.
You compare us with the 340/330 fleet a while back... Is not comparable! Now we do ULRs with the minimum 2 days off before+after and, on top of that, we do all the rest as well. Also different now is that fleet changed multiple ( I count >15) subcontinent destinations from TA to layover resulting in ever less time @home or days off. Another fact.
I do feel for you 777 guys since I too had insane rosters on the 330/340 and I remembered how I felt.
But please don't try to tell us that it's so much harder for you now then it was for us.
Stick to that and all the sympathys are gone.
