Sit and get paid to do nothing. They would want you to put an extra lunch in, but only a maroon would actually do that.
What do you do if...

Hence why we don't get "help" for stops in our center

Had a 13 hour day last Thursday because they wouldn't send help with stops. Their exact reasoning was it shows up on a report against Orion so you're on your own.
I dropped the anchor.

That's odd. We are a tiny extended center and have one. They pick up letter boxes and any air that is processed after the regular drivers make their regular pickups. In hubs they are often 22.3 and work inside after driving.

That will change in about 4 months.
Sit for 50 min read the paper, play with your phone, call your wife or friends, shop, eat, etc what ever you want. But DON'T CALL THE BUILDING LOOKING FOR MORE WORK. I've sat around for over 2 hours on top of the 1 hour lunch I already took getting paid because they sent me a letter box and UPS store to cover. There fault not mine.
Then there are days that I know I'll finish well before my last stop usually a letter box in that case I'll send a message to the OMS clerk around 3 or 4 to give my letter box away to someone and magically in a little while it disappears.

Sit and wait.
There was this one route I used to crush, and a few times I stop completed a letter box 10 minutes early. One of my Sup's chewed me out and said next time to wait there until pickup time.
Easiest money you can make in delivery. Pickup compliance
Drop boxes have a warning in the DIAD which you have to override if you close them out early.

They will NOT tell you to put in an extra lunch as that will show up on a report.
They can't force you, ask you to put in or put in an extra lunch for you.
It's not going to end up on a report you could put 2 hrs in for a lunch they don't care you not getting paid for it. The problem it that they now it would end up with a grievance be filed if not labor board charges filed.

Sure it does. I made a data entry error while putting in my lunch and was questioned about it before I punched out. I went back in and corrected the error.
It wasn't a report it was the OMS clerk or your SUP checking to see if people put a lunch in on the computer and they noticed you put in more time if you said I lost track of time and took a little more lunch so I put in the DIAD that way they wouldn't care d The only reports some center manager are worried about with lunch is the people that don't put any in or the people that put in less they they should be taking. In my center the only one they care about is the people that don't put one in they don't care how much of one you put in as long as you put one in.

Pretty soon how many times we piss in a day will be on a report.
This happens occasionally to me. I'll call a neighboring driver to see if they wouldn't mind covering my drop box. THEN I'll call the office and have that pickup moved over to the other driver.
One cover guy abuses that all the time. He'll skip lunch and call the office to move the drop box pickup.

I have 2 boxes I cover on a particular route, both 1745. If I scan one at 1740, then drive to the other one and close the first one at 1750 and then do the second one, do I show up on that report?
We have the rdr report- is there something similar with letterboxes?
