The construction company I worked for, for all those years didn't allow coffee breaks! I think the longest shift I ever worked with them was 22-hours with only a 30-minute lunch break. Now that sounds horrible but it really isn't. Working on derricks we pretty much did as we pleased, as long as the crane was working that is all the office ever cared about, and that we met quota! We generally ran a 3-man crew, with a deck engineer, and crane operator. When the rigging started getting too big we went to 4-man crew. As long as the majority of the crew was on deck one of us could sneak in and grab a quick cup of coffee and a candy bar. But never an organized set down coffee break!
I can't remember every detail of each jurisdiction's union contract, but it seems as most had it written in the crews couldn't go more than 5-hours without eating, but there was always a clause about paying more money not to stop and eat. We always took the money! :lol:
