I was using historical Delta SL master SL percentages and extrapolating for the number of pilots we have on the list today. The historical majority WB B group lies within that 2000-8000 number extrapolated for our total number of SL pilots today. Not making this **** up, I've got all the lists going back 30 years. Your issue is you think you know it all, you don't. You're still very new here. Maybe open up your apeture a bit, dial down some of the hate and you might just learn something or at least have an "I didn't know that" moment or 2.

International flying works for me. I sleep well on any break and on layovers. I don’t even need a recovery day at home. When I get back home I’ll go to bed early around 830-9 and wake up the next morning feeling great. I don’t know how guys do it that never sleep on break or sleep well on layovers.

First break coming back from Europe is also my favorite. Watch movie, eat lunch, nap, WINNING!
If your European pickup time is 10am or later then try and stay up the night before until 11pm-12am. That brings me more success at quickly falling back asleep after the usual 2am-3am middle of the night wake up.

So, take that "you are still very new here" crap back to Chit Chat. We don't play their kinds of games here. Your issue is you think you know it all, you don't. I don't care how long you've been here. Maybe stop being so condescending, dial down some of the hate (ironic), and you might just get some respect, or at least admit "I didn't know that (I screwed up math)."
Oh, and OOfff ain't new, much less very new.

At nearly 17,000 pilots today, that would mean WB B used to take better than 50% to hold. Which is demonstrably false. Since the Merger, WB B plug has been over 10,XXX, which is more like 80%.

I don't know what chit chat is BTW. Stop trying to silo me there. You're not the first (Oofff, CBreezy and others have tried the same).

Ooff is new compared to me and others here. Wait, how would you know? You an alt? Well looking at the SL from 1995. In 1995 WB B plug was sitting about 50%. Where were you in 1995?

as someone in that range of seniority, I’d personally make less money and enjoy my job far less being a WB-B. So open up YOUR aperture and realize that other people want different things than you. I certainly wouldn’t do “so much better,” but your closed mind cannot comprehend such a thing

I fully understand that. the NB fleets schedules will continue to deteriorate, they are going to squeeze every bit of duty period and block out of those fleets. they've reprogrammed the optimizer based on what they found in C19. It's going to get worse. You do whatever you want. I don't care. I'm just posting this out there so those reading can make informed decisions.
