    I once again stand by my statement the 30 minute break is the most biggest waste of time in the universe

    out here, we have to have at least a 15 after 5-1/4 on duty, a further 15 after the next 2-1/4 block, then at the 10 hour mark, a 30.

    I am a slacker.
    I am expected to be an uneducated, miscreant to society who holds everyone back with that big slow, currently dirty truck, but even if the customer is closed, everyone is home watching Captain Kangaroo, and playing dominos and everyone else hates trucks, and drivers,
    I am outside the gate, in a parking area awaiting their return.
    They may not be proud, but I am happy with my performance, and after this load of joy is delivered, I have another 1100 mile load that delivers Friday 7 AM because I love pain and torture I suppose.
    :spam1: Sandwich time!

    I am not vain, I am in a great mood, just had to type that to see who actually read it until the end. :occasion5:

    I was thinking what would happen if I say violated that 30 minutes and stopped driving at say 1030 into the 11 hour stretch and called it good.

    I wonder how many violations it would take before the company fires me for being too set in my ways. If they wanted me to take breaks thats why there is a sleeper berth and off duty rules.

    Do two pots count?

    Ive a pot Ive been working on since the other day.

    What we do is use a grinder to get into a bag of coffee beans, grind it then brew in the pot. Its not something you threw away. Or drank too much in a day because it can keep you up late at night.

    When I brew a second pot tomorrow am there is going to be two pots.
