When will UPS say you make too much an hour and change the hourly rate format or rate?

[QUOTE="Bubblehead, post: 1323984, member: 14176"] Since this historic class action lawsuit, UPS does not deduct any time for lunch breaks unless the employee themselves enter the time in their DIAD. Lunch breaks are specifically provided for in our various supplements. In the Central Region Supplement, it states we are [B][I][U]required[/U][/I][/B] to take a 30 minute lunch between the 3rd and 6th hour. There is no wiggle room in this language and any deviation from it is an extra contractual agreement. The notion that "it's no one else's business when I take my lunch" or "I do what is best for me" is ludicrous, selfish and has no place in a union shop governed by a [B][I]collective[/I][/B] bargaining agreement. Many brave men and women throughout Teamster history fought and suffered for us to have the rights we have and we do their memory a great disservice when we selfishly piss away these rights for our own self perceived needs. If the company were to tell these Me-sters that they had to hold their lunch off until they completed all their work, they would have a fit and rightfully so. These people need to step out of their little fantasy worlds and realize they are cogs in a very large machine that doesn't work unless all parts are working in unison. [/QUOTE]
