Funny how "1-hour breaks are company policy" except during peak or during service disruption days with 2 hour late freight.
You can't make this stuff up

Around here they will go 2 or 3 weeks really being anal about it. Then all of a sudden it's like they forget and if you take a half every once in awhile no one says anything.
I haven't taken an hour break on a Monday in over a year

I can't even remember the last time I took an hour break. 30 minutes for me everyday. They never say anything.

Hour breaks are a big issue in my district. Management thinks it will make us more productive if we take an hour break. Maybe I'm dense, but for the life of me I can't figure out or understand when it's explained to me, how it makes us more productive.

Are the systems still down today? Management must really be sweating about not being able to print gap reports
Nope. All up and running.

I noticed when you hit verify request the completed deliveries are slowly starting to show. We had ROADS this morning. Don't know what else is up. I know they were having to manually do weights and balances on the flights.

ton of rain

How would that even work lol leaving the building at 11:30 is hard enough.
I'm assuming this situation is backing up freight and we will get slammed one day next week

In theory, no one wants to stay out that extra 30 minutes. OK, that theory is true. The other side of the theory is that you'd hustle up to offset having to stay out longer. That part is crap except for those who are on the borderline of having an 8 hour day. Not that there's really any penalty if you go over 8 with only a 30 anyway.
