[QUOTE="MassWineGuy, post: 2170678, member: 44554"] I'm with MrFedEx here. The only times I was told to take a break specifically to avoid getting paid was in my first week or two of training. Other than pm sort, all I was doing was computer based training. Breaks only came up once or twice. I didn't like it, but on my first week I felt it wiser not to make noise. Now, the only breaks I take are the 30 or 60 minute required breaks. If freight's late, we're told to punch in the delay code. I've never been pressured into any questionable breaks, other than what I mentioned, and strongly believe in not working for free. If a break request made no sense now, I would ask for a specific reason and still not take it. I clocked in earlier than usual one day last week to make deliveries. I had lunch and coffee for my hour break but couldn't start my pm pickups because they weren't read. No one objected to me and others hanging out until our routes began. [/QUOTE]
