[QUOTE="browniehound, post: 410740, member: 4653"] Here is what I don't like. We are given an hour lunch break everyday. We are required to take according to my center manager. That's fine, I can live with that. What I can't live with is being told to take a certain amount at lunch time and the rest at the end of the day to make service on our packages. It gets under my skin that he just won't pay us for the time not taken. We give something up by not taking our full hour to make service to our customers, so I think he should give something up by paying us for the time not taken. The company wants us to take a certain amount at 6 pm? Thats not lunch to me. Normal people eat lunch from 11-2. I can promise you that I can count on my hand (I only have 1 finger on my right hand, lol) the number of companies in this country that would make their employees sit in the cafeteria at 6pm just to finish their "lunch time". What is up with this??? You want me to work 35 minutes in the middle of the day for you and then you want me to sit idle at the end of the day to make up the time I lost at lunch working for you, when I could be home instead? Something is wrong here. Does anyone else agree? [/QUOTE]
