[QUOTE="soberups, post: 332598, member: 14668"] People lose sight of the INTENT of the contract language and the real reason behind the lawsuit. The INTENT of the contract language is to ensure that UPS does not load up a route with businesses to a degree that forces the driver to take a lunch at the end of the day. The driver is ENTITLED to take his lunch in the middle of the day like any other human being. The lawsuit was about the fact that UPS was basically forcing drivers to work off of the clock. UPS has never cared whether or not you actually take a lunch break; their only concern is being able to screw you out of an hours pay. If I have a school function or other event to attend in the evening, I will take a 5 minute lunch and put that amount into the DIAD. No falsification of records; no working off of the clock; I am being honest and being paid for all hours worked, per the contract. [/QUOTE]
