crew rest seat

I don't understand..
Pilots on the rest break sleep in coach? Is this some sort of a joke? Ha-ha..

I was on a CAL flight from BCN-EWR 3 years ago. They graciously offered me a Biz/First seat. I observed all 3 crewmembers using the first row of BizFirst for their breaks. Maybe it was different back then? (2006 time frame.)

The coach seats for rest are only used if the Businessfirst cabin sells out(revenue, not upgrades/non-revs). If there is a seat open in 1st class, it is upgraded to the crew rest seat before any other upgrades and nonrevs. It WILL be blocked for crew use and a specific seat will always be used on the 755/767 each time on the next contract. Everyone knows this.
