Bob4Bills Posted January 28, 2005 Share Posted January 28, 2005 Ditto, but it's flxible. Not the loaf, the lunch time.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mark VI Posted January 28, 2005 Share Posted January 28, 2005 I'm home by 12:30 and eat lunch in my kitchen. The downside, up every work day at 3am. (yawn ) 30 minutes is about the norm here. Boss doesn't care when the daytime folks leave for 60-75 minutes on a Friday. We have a large cafeteria at work, so most eat there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pine Barrens Mafia Posted January 28, 2005 Share Posted January 28, 2005 1 hour. Nice, but it extends my work-day. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HopsGuy Posted January 28, 2005 Share Posted January 28, 2005 Get this - None. We are expected to eat at our desk. One guy ususally goes out and picks up a take-out order. Yeah, it's probably illegal, but that's what we do. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Realist Posted January 28, 2005 Share Posted January 28, 2005 1 hour - enough time to take a 2.5 mile walk everyday. Usually then eat at my desk. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KRC Posted January 28, 2005 Share Posted January 28, 2005 I get 30 minutes. Yep- 30, not even enough time to pinch a loaf. 221302[/snapback] 1 hour, unless I decide to take more. As long as I put in at least an 8 hour day, my lunch could be 3 hours long if I desire. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rockpile Posted January 28, 2005 Share Posted January 28, 2005 I get an hour, but I take it at my desk (pack lunch at home). I usually do not get interrupted but sometimes I do. I make up for it when I go out for a Plate and take 2 hours. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MikeG Posted January 28, 2005 Share Posted January 28, 2005 30 min.... but I usually take longer Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Matt in KC Posted January 28, 2005 Share Posted January 28, 2005 I get as much time as I want, I just can't miss any deliverables. A typical day when not in crunch mode is 8:30-6:15, and only take time off for lunch on Friday, when I get out of the office for an hour. Throughout the day, however, I take a dozen 5 minute breaks to keep mentally fresh (about half of them checking out the latest here). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

stevestojan Posted January 28, 2005 Share Posted January 28, 2005 we can take either a half hour or an hour. I could never take an hour. How the hell long does it take you people to eat? I go to the Publix across the street, get a sub, eat it, go out and have a smoke, and Im done in all of 25 minutes. Why would I want an hour?

col_forbin Posted January 28, 2005 Share Posted January 28, 2005 1 hour - enough time to take a 2.5 mile walk everyday. Usually then eat at my desk. 221327[/snapback] People that do this at my work really piss me off. Why is it ok to do what you want on your lunch hour and then eat lunch when you are supposed to be working. It is like people who come into work in the morning and eat breakfast. It really bothers me for some reason. Oh by the way I get an hour, and yes I eat my lunch during that time. Sorry for venting. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fezmid Posted January 28, 2005 Share Posted January 28, 2005 How the hell long does it take you people to eat? If you go to a restaurant, it takes about 10 minutes to get there, 10 minutes to get back, and about 30-45 minutes for service. I'm salaried so I get as much time as I want; as long as I finish the various projects by the deadlines nobody cares. However, more often than not I just skip lunch (or grab a sandwich and eat that at my desk). CW Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
