[QUOTE="Coldworld, post: 299909, member: 4777"] Its a no brainer. everyone needs at least a few minutes to sit and relax, refuel, listen to the radio, read a book...whatever. many companies REQUIRE their employees to take a full hour unpaid. I take one break during my lunch which is paid...they are paying me to sit there and read a book...nice. If everyone is required to take a lunch maybe they will add a route or two , like they did at my barn. The main reason many places are starting to gey tough on this is because of the lawsuit in california, which cost ups millions. I sit there for 30 minutes unpaid, and 15 minutes paid, and actually it goes faster than most people think. If you absolutely have too much work to not be able to get a lunch call in...its not your problem. Its so interesting to me how there are some drivers who think that they can get any amount of work done in under 9.5, and that there is no such thing as dispatch overloading them. Sorry to bust your bubble, but there are times where ups gives you more work than what you can get done SAFELY, with a lunch in the given amount of time. [/QUOTE]
