[QUOTE="'Lord Brown's bidding', post: 1167784, member: 32753"] Over, some rules are meant to be bent, others broken....know the underlying principles, and it is no concern... Crazy thing, I already said I don't do what I am "defending" here. I also know this discussion isn't about "law-breaking", it is about over-zealous members hoping this new adjustment will finally force drivers to stop blowing their lunches, so the company can ease off the back of the slower ones and hire more drivers. The point is, that's not going to happen. Drivers blow their lunches for reasons other than what the law is trying to prevent; those who DO blow their lunch because they are compelled to could just as easily be helped (it's got nothing to do with "manning up" so much as it does about knowledge). I guess I am playing the Devil's Advocate here because I am hoping the more outspoken here may go on a more educational campaign and show newbies the ropes, don't just tell them "take your lunch"; all they "know" is they'll get fired, and not only is that not true, they [I]don't[/I] have to work 10-12 hour days while taking a lunch, neither....as long as their center team isn't comprised of idiots or a sadists.
