In my state, your break is your time and you can't be required to remain in a work area. However, the parking lot is so far away from the actual building, that by the time you got back inside, break would already be over. It's not worth it unless you're in excruciating pain and left your pain killers in the car or something like that.
Off the clock work?

Here are some common lies I've been told regarding my pay:
It'll be on the next check.
They must not have adjusted the start time (there is no they, it's you, the sup I'm speaking to that failed to make the change).
I'll take care of it.
One sup who jerked me around eventually got walked out because he was just a terrible human being. Even he was too slimy for management.

If your still on probation, I don't think you wanna get too crappy. Just my opinion. They will clearly take advantage of you, but I'm not sure about in the unload, still under probation. Take someone else's advice if that's the case.
If probation is over, make sure the sup is telling you to start early. Then let him know you were unable to change your start time when you punched in. If your pay isn't correct, according to the hours you worked, tell him and hand in a grievance. They tend to be reeeaal slow in pay correction. Management gets a LOT faster when penalty pay is in play. Once you file a grievance and get paid for it a couple of times, they'll be real clear about you starting early or not. DON'T WAIT TOO LONG TO FILE ON THE TIMES THEY HAVE NOT PAID YOU CORRECTLY IN THE PAST.
Talk to someone there who has actually filed on this problem. But don't be picking his brain about how and who - IF YOUR NOT GOING TO DO ANYTHING ABOUT IT. It's really aggravating to some of us.

Saturday Air has moved our start time from 8:00 to 8:15 "unless the air gets here early then we will change your start time", without due compensation. Sounds sneaky to me. Of course "if you don't like your job you don't have to work here." is the only answer you get.

No, I think he has a few other answers. Regardless of what time the air arrives, is not his problem or responsibility. I'm guessing this newby doesn't fly the jet, nor drive the feeder. If they give him a time to start, he is to get paid from that time. If the air has arrived, or not. That's why management gets paid the big bucks. To make those decisions.

. Not going to their personal vehicle is because people steal stuff out of packages and stash it in their car on break. Rule should apply to sups, too, but they leave during shift to go to the store all the time.

Thursday night we had a girl who came in to get her last check. Her sups couldn't find it. So she stormed out pissed off and grabbed a fire extinguisher and smashed our glass double doors entering the hub. I'm gonna guess she won't be getting that last check anymore.

in our hub theres a few employees that do that, they had management favorites do it until a few seniority employees started
to file on it. they will adjust ur time to make sure u get paid for the work you do, ive done setup before when i was in unload
since i had higher seniority but now im in pickoff and dont get the option anymore.
