What are you putting in the DIAD?

I've been there and done that with the kids ball games, school functions etc. I have burned thru a few lunches myself over the years when I had no other reasonable alternative.

However.......

If for whatever reason you are going to skip lunch, then you at least need to grow a pair and put zero lunch in the DIAD so that no records are being falsified and you are being paid for all hours worked. If this means taking some heat from your management team, then man up and take the heat. Otherwise, you are screwing your self and the other drivers in your center over.

Of course! I would never work for free.

And it's a no-brainer for your dispatcher to make a note of this and "adjust" your daily dispatch. Who would have ever thought?

I come to my center manager or Sup the day there is a game,"Hey my son has a game tonight, is ok i cut my lunch?" They're all parents.

I just make sure I tell the OMS when I get in, "No Lunch today". They take care of the rest. I put nothing in the DIAD
