On a heavy day 70, at Christmas I'm lucky to break 100.

You want a toe? I can get you a toe.
Between the 4th and 5th hour? That's stupid. Ours is 3rd and 6th.
I take 3-4 smaller breaks throughout the day but I take it all.
I'm totally with you on the if EVERYONE has to take it then EVERYONE has to take it. They can't cherry pick who.

I usually take 2 hours on the days I stroll in late.

I think he is saying to( take your lunch) not skip it and get paid back for it. Sounds like your center doesn't enforce the lunch language......like most centers....but they sure do like to pick and choose who they'll harass about it.

Enforced by the company or union (or both)?

I love it. I can honestly say I agree with UPS: no lunch between the contracted = time warning letter. I am all for it.

I agree that we should all take out full lunch and break(s).
I don't agree that they need to be taken during the contractually mandated times.
Take it whenever the hell you want, just make sure to take it.
I usually would save my whole break time for the end of the day, where a bunch of us would meet at a local mall on the return trip. We'd all shoot the bull and have fun, and nobody would skip lunch.
In the dead of summer though, I'd be sure to take it in the daytime, you need some time to recuperate when it's 105 and humid as hell

I think you should meet your states requirements on the time and duration of the lunch(meal period). The breaks, unless specified should be at the employees discretion. Remember taking whatever length of a lunch period back in the day, and they add it to your paid day?, ah the good old days.

I also remember being allowed to run Code 05 if your kid had a ballgame or school event.
What is this code 05 you speak of?
