[QUOTE="vantexan, post: 938996, member: 24302"] Even now with the 14hr rule that's break and work combined. I've been literally all over the country and everywhere they say at least 30 mins when over 6hrs, 1 hour when working 8 or more. And no break can be taken in the first or last hour of work. Doesn't mean they comply with the rules though. We took 30 mins right after clocking in and sure enough the truck arrived 5 mins after we started break. More than likely the DOT gives leeway for extraordinary circumstances like Christmas, but I'd bet good money they'd take a dim view of forcing workers to not get a break until 1500 or much later, and only 30 mins, part of it spent running down the road to get back in time.
