[QUOTE="Bad Gas!, post: 380625, member: 14062"] This is not an uncommon situation your husband is in.im fact, it is very, very common with the new cover drivers up to some very senior guys.Every driver has to deal with the "too much work" to an extent...I think the taking the full hour lunch is an excellent idea.And it doesn't have to be all in the middle of the day.Split it up as needed..But note this:before you can be available to help other drivers , you need to finish your lunch hour off.By finishing this hour, there is a good chance they will find someone else to do the dirty work(running the splits) because your 9/5 time won't allow you to help anyone else....And when you communicate with driver sup, let them know that you plan on taking your lunch hour for several reasons.1)your losing 42$ an hour if you don't.2)for safty reasons you HAVE to take a break from the heat(cold,muscle aches,headache, call the the family etc)...This company will respectfully give you your lunch if you work hard but demand it.It is a must....I go over this with several friends on a regular basis...I don't say dog your route and loaf..I say work at a hard steady pace,do the best you can, be safe and take your full break..It's not stealing time.It's your time...Now, you may have to break sup in with 30 min then 45 min then an hour if you have been totaling skiping your full hour but you don't have too...I think you get my point here so I will stop...good luck..
