[QUOTE="104Feeder, post: 1166259, member: 42554"] You brought it up to Management? I'm not surprised at their response. In our case, we have two 15 minute breaks that are taken in the first half and second half of the day. So it wouldn't be unreasonable for them to ask you to save your second break for part of that 30 minute rest period. We only have a few runs where this may be an issue, mostly layovers and Vegas turns. However, as long as you aren't trying to game the system they really don't have a leg to stand on if you take your meals & breaks within the contractually allotted times and have to take additional time later due to a legal requirement. It would be the same as going through scales, a safety checkpoint, conducting your pre or post trip, or being pulled over. All would be paid for time. If they want they can come up with a button to push to account for that time. Of course, if they direct you to code it as a second meal do so and grieve it immediately. [/QUOTE]
