[QUOTE="browniehound, post: 696918, member: 4653"] I understand this, but why such the fuss and disipline if YOU decide not to take all of it? Our contract allows for 2 paid 10 minute breaks and an hour unpaid lunch to be taken between the 4th and 5th hour. If my route is 98% house calls and zero pick-ups why can't I decide NOT to take a lunch? I can use the 2-10 minute paid breaks to eat and then work straight through to finish as early as possible. Why make me sit at the end of the day doing nothing? I can't stand it. I can't just sit there by myself for an hour everyday, every week, all year doing nothing! Its freaking torture. Who the hell needs 1.4 hours of break-time everyday? Thats 1.4 hours away from your family on top of the 9-11 you are actually working for UPS I just want a little bit of life outside work mon-fri. The 1.4 hours of "contractually negotiated" break time doesn't help my life outside UPS. It does the opposite, it confines me to UPS. I don't like it and thats my opinion. [/QUOTE]
