[QUOTE="Mugarolla, post: 2071019, member: 8481"] Only 45 minutes? I have been on jobs that had 2 to 3 hours of paid coffee time. The nature of the beast in feeders. The center loads need to get to the hubs to make the night sort. The driver then waits until sort down to pull the center loads back to the center. Some hub to hub jobs are the same way. UPS got tired of paying drivers to sleep for 2 or 3 hours, so they started making some of them shift at the hubs to fill that down time, but not all. A half hour meal plus another hour paid nap is not uncommon. A sup was training a new driver on his production ride covering a vacation job. They got to the hub and the trainee asked the sup what they are going to do until the pull time 3 hours later. The sup said, "I don't care if you read a book or go for a walk, but I am going to sleep for a couple of hours. You're welcome to do the same." [/QUOTE]
