I had one that told me we were on rest even though we were still sitting around the airport with no hotel and that we only needed 8 hours but they gave us 10 because they were being nice

I’m on my third leg and second Captain; he just came in on VDA - two hours ago he was eating dinner on his day off.
We push and the MOT comes up “MOT 7 hours from now due to Captain Table B limits”
No, that gives me a 18 hour day. Your MOT math’s wrong.
