[TX] Can/should I be written up for this or is this just some weird micro-managing?
In my job, we have what is called "Away" time which is what we can use apart from our scheduled breaks. We have to meet 90% adherence everyday which is equivalent to about 45 minutes of away time.
Now, my sup is calling me out because I took my scheduled break time plus a bit of away which totaled a 22 minute break (15 min scheduled break plus 7 min away). This wasn't really an issue before because I was always meeting my 90% daily, so I asked if there's a time limit for being away at a time.. and my sup actually says that it shouldn't equal to an actual scheduled break. Basically saying I shouldn't take 15 minutes at a time on "away".
Firstly, I only took 7 minutes "away" but added it with my scheduled break, so I didn't actually take 15 minutes "away" but I guess.
Second, even if I decide to take 15 minutes of "away" time, why should I be penalized for that? Sometimes I might have an emergency, or I need to use the restroom which can take a while. Even without a legitimate reason, what if I just want to take a small break? Why would it matter how long I take as long as I'm meeting the daily adherence?
Is my sup actually being reasonable or is this just some odd form of micro-managing?
