Prepare a decent lunch, complete with sport drinks, at home to take to work.
After your morning commits, find a safe place to park and punch meal.
While eating/drinking lunch, sort your load, organize your thoughts and plan the rest of your day.
The company knows qualifying drivers do this. It isn't a secret.
I did this way back before some of you were born.
After you qualify don't work on meal.

I used to park at a gas station, go inside and get a drink and a couple hot dogs and sort the truck while I ate. I also would map out my next 20 stops and get a game plan for the rest of my day. You have to log an hour so really there isn’t a whole lot you can do to get that hour back besides making sure your truck is sorted and ready to go. After you qualify, stop doing that immediately. It’s your hour, you aren’t being paid so don’t even think about cardboard until you are being paid again.

Just concentrate on learning the route. Once you get that all done and you become organized everything else will fall into place
With Orion 3.0 you have to put your lunch in the board

No you don't. Runners still skip their lunch. I see a list every morning that people have to sign for their hour lunch that didn't put one in the day before.

So they give up a free hour every day for their fake lunch? At my building we are able to skip our lunch or take a shorter lunch without having our pay docked.
You better check again.
There is a list of people that are working through their lunch cuz it shows up on a report
If you do not put your lunch in then you have another problem

Yeah I have no idea why someone would do this. Here, if we forget to log a whole hour, your OR will take the missing time out of your day... while you were working. That’s time you were working which is now being taken away because you forgot to log an hour. You can either do this or take a write up. There are some circumstances where they will allow you to only take 30 but those are rare situations and you have to have your ORS approve it before you clock out for the day.
We have the option here of taking 30 or 60. But you have to bid that

Oh ok, that’s news to me. They will allow you to have a 30 minute meal indefinitely? Or do you have to bid for that every day?
When you bid your route You have the option of picking 30 or 60

Oh WTH, that’s awesome. An hour is too long. 10-15 minutes to eat and the rest is just picking my nose until the meal requirement is satisfied.
