[QUOTE="Wyobill1956, post: 144632"] The Phantom lunch hour: UPS makes us take an hour lunch because its money in there pocket. No one in our center takes the hour between the 3rd and 5th hour. Some skip it completely so they can go home and some take it at the end of the day. I live in the area I deliver so I take it when Im done. If I stop by my house for an hour Im always 1.50 over my time allocation. Many of us would like a half hour but the union is against this because UPS would put more work on each driver and this might result in a route cut. If we all had honest and fair time allocations we could take that lunch hour at noon and not have worry about missing Buissness stops or pickups. Too bad the Union does not challenge time allocations! More routes would have to be added in each center , Junior drivers would move up on the seniority list the the Union would get more Dues and we could actually take a lunch. UPS likes employees to donate free time to make ther numbers look better. We have people giving over an hour free time on the sort and no one says a thing about it. Time donation is welcomed at UPS!
