[QUOTE="brett636, post: 1004806, member: 249"] I believe you are jumping the gun here. In my area we are allowed a 10 minute paid break and a 50 minute unpaid meal. We have always been required to take a meal, but until recently we have not been told specifically to take the full meal. I know of drivers who take 1 minute of meal all day. I normally take my 10 minute break and about 10-15 minutes of meal at the same time for a total down time of about 20-25 minutes. When I am showing my meal or break time the truck does not move, and I perform no company work while I am on meal so I am not losing anything and the company gains nothing during this time. The time listed as meal time is unpaid time so whether I take 10 minutes or the whole 50 my paycheck is not affected. The more meal I take the later I clock out because it just takes that much longer to finish my day since my downtime otherwise is non existent. [/QUOTE]
