Well if the rumour that at least 10 380's will be grounded then it will makes sense due to 777 picking up the extra work and already 100's of pilots short on the 777. Who will train these guys is another story.
Time will tell how this huge mess will be sorted out.

Oops.... I bet they will have a hard time finding motivated guys to fill these slots. More resignations on the way...
Let's see how they do it this time. The number I heard is 100+ guys...
Welcome on the Boeing fleet. It will be a real life changer !!! And not in a good way

Unreal....
Yet, a few months ago, when a bunch of 330/340 four year Captains asked to go to the 777 as a Captain vs go sit right seat on the 380, they said, "No, that's not an option."

If they think this will sort out the pilot shortage problem they have another thing coming, the guys on the verge of leaving inc myself will still leave as planned and now you will have upset 380 guys deciding enough is enough...
Just when you thought the beatings might ease up they just keep on coming in full force !!!!!!!!!!

Isn’t it ironic.
All that talk mitigating any A vs. B drift like “who gives a hoot about what equipment you mount”, “it’s their train set and as long as the money is the same” and “blah, blah, blah” stops right here at the moment a dugongonaut faces the horrible downgrade to something less super.
Suddenly “enough is enough” or “they come in full force”.....
Get a grip and regurgitate your earlier arguments.
At least no more fake ROPs, short vectors by ATC become manageable and just imagine, you actually gain in inflight alternates!

380 to 777 re-education program https://youtu.be/_YR1rIKvlnQ

At least Glofish gets it.

The glass is half full or half empty. As has been pointed out A380 currency is a bit limited as far as finding other jobs...a 777 rating not so. It depends of course if you are bonded. Without a bond (and previous rating) I would think a few people would be quite happy to improve their marketability.
Oh no. 380 fellas can't leave and get another job? That's terrible.
