[QUOTE="Sweeper, post: 3119794, member: 66635"] You aren’t the first and won’t be the last to think this way. There are a few things to realize about breaks and meals. The language that dictates when and how long you are on break is in your supplement. You can request to attempt to have it changed during the current negotiations. If your not happy with it you and every other member have the right to vote it down. Management doesn’t have the right to edit your time card. If you only code out a half hour then they should only take a half hour. With that being said eventually you’ll end up having disciplinary action taken against you if you start taking meal and breaks outside of the times that your supplement states or taking shorter or longer breaks. Taking breaks during the contractual times sometimes doesn’t make sense on your route. It could present you with issues with pickup time compliance, missed business deliveries, or missing the air trailer. Take your breaks when your supposed to. Text in when your going to have service failures. Don’t rearrange your day to take care of customers. Orion is supposed to do that for you. Management needs to adjust your day to fit your delivery area, the contract and your safe work pace not you adjusting when and if you take full breaks. Good luck [/QUOTE]
