[QUOTE="laffter, post: 1138507, member: 43119"] Thanks. To answer a previous question- I don't know if everyone was offered the break at the end of the shift. I just know that it was made known to people on my belt because I and the other person talking of the grievance did not keep it a secret. The full time sup became aware of it and came to tell us. Technically, we didn't do nothing. We filled out a useless DOK paper, did an evacuation drill, and went outside to smoke. [SIZE=2]( /sarcasm )[/SIZE] We went down at about 8:10 (normal start time 4:15, actually started at ~5:00). This is not an unusual downtime for a heavy day. Were we heavy? Not really. But what this means is that we still went down at a fairly "normal" time. Unload pushed the volume out faster than usual. So yes, we had a 45min period of jerking off, then a three hour and ten minute period of heavier flow than we would have experienced otherwise. The building saved most of its "losses" by pushing the volume out quicker. Nobody had a say in any of this. If this was our choice, I'm sure most of us would have opted to start at the regular time and have a regular flow. I, personally, had a light day, so I have nothing to complain about. Others did not. The day was quite a clusterf___ for a lot of people. [/QUOTE]
