[QUOTE="AKCoverMan, post: 5188098, member: 17867"] I do respect language but we have a say in that language. I feel bad for drivers forced to take unpaid time they don’t want but if it’s the rule where you are it’s the rule. If I worked in such an area I’d do it, I’d also push for making it the drivers option but not the company option as our local has. The Union represents the Members, the Union is the Members. We have a say. We all know coming in this is not a 9 to 5 kind of job. Flexibility of the unpaid meal break IMO makes sense in the ongoing battle to,both be a UPS driver and have a life. The extra hour on weekday evenings means a great deal to me, and I suspect many others. Not sure why it makes people so angry, unless they are being forced out of unpaid lunch thst they really want to take.. and that shouldn’t be a thing under the contract, right? [/QUOTE]
