[QUOTE="retiredTxfeeder, post: 1741592, member: 52978"] My last 15 years or so in feeders, I never took an hour meal. Every 3 months or so management would put a memo out by the turn in that you MUST take an hour meal, or else. The dispatcher had the final word to waive the hour meal rule or not. If there were service commitment issues, or in my case, tractor scheduling problems, it was to the companys' benefit to have me work straight thru. (the driver I shared with got our tractor at his start time, no waiting, and I got to go home after a 10 or 11 hour day. Since I retired, the DOT has mandated the 30 minute rule, and I don't think there is any way around that. [/QUOTE]
