My answer: "We report before the hotel breakfast opens, we have a 10 minute scheduled turn, on a plane with no food and no lavatory. Both of us need to eat and use the bathroom. What do you expect me to do?"
Without missing a beat, he said, "That trip has a 3 hour break in the afternoon. You can have breakfast and lunch then."
And the guy wonders why I was trying to help unionize the place.

Probably one of the ones who still stubbornly refuses to leave the cockpit unattended on a through flight, despite power and good air going. I don't get it, but I will get dinner. If he wants to starve, that's on him.
sorry couldn't resist

Per FAR 117 you need 8 hours of sllep opportunity. For me that is a minimum of 10 hours from checkin to lobby. When you add the 1/2 local transportation each way that means my minimum rest is 11 hours. If you need more than 10 hours in the hotel to get the FAR 117 sleep opportunity then tell Scheduling what you need, then your minimum rest is 1 hour added to that.So if you need 11 hours in the hotel then your minimum rest is 12 hours. In no case should any 121 Pilot accept 10 hours rest as giving them 8 hours of sleep opportunity, and per FAR 117 only the pilot can determine what rst they need in order to get 8 hours of sleep opportunuty.
