Do you eat lunch with your co-workers/peers or alone? Why?

Car lunch eater of 9 years here, small talk gives me anxiety so I avoid my co-workers whenever possible

>> No.12358987

I spend my lunches at my (office) desk, people know I'm not a normalfag so they generally don't bother me unless it's work related and something that shouldn't wait. People only chat you up if you're approachable. If you look like you're focused on something besides eating, they will usually leave you alone (reading, watching, etc).

Alone. Back when I was working a swing shift I'd wait till the other employees had eaten so someone would be available to cover the dock if we had a semi or tanker show up. I'm on 2nd now and each guy just has a different time they prefer to eat.

My coworkers are all idiots and listening to them ruins my mood, their food usually stinks, and they talk loudly over the movies that play nonstop on the breakroom so being there never feels like a break. So I eat in my car. I don't ever start it either, I just sweat or shiver according to the season but it's preferable to eating with others.

Yeah, we all do. We eat breakfast, then go in to work, and if you're actually working and thinking and doing your fucking job, then you burn enough calories that after four hours (halfway though a normal shift), you're pretty fucking hungry again and need to eat lunch, otherwise you end up sluggish and tired for the latter four hours of work, and it you're sluggish and tired you aren't working as effectively as you should be.

>>12359342
Fuck you, I would gladly take the pay docked for time in the bathroom. I have slow fucking movements, it often takes me 15-30 minutes to shit, and that's just shitting and wiping, no phone. I hate trying to fit/time it into my half-hour break and wrap everything up in time to punch back in without eating up 30 minutes of paid work sitting on the can, and still somehow find time to eat lunch in that period. It just makes more sense to actually eat my fucking lunch then shit during the shift. It would be nice if I could just punch out for a shit then punch back in when I'm done, but it doesn't work like that.

>>12359111
>there never feels like a break
I actually enjoy some of my coworkers enough to legitimately enjoy conversation with them at lunch, but I get this same problem. Sometimes there's so much to talk about or such a good topic that you get all excited, and so much shit going on around you on top of it, that you never actually manage to relax and eat all your food leisurely. Going somewhere private and quiet means that you have nothing to do other than casually eat your food at a healthy and comfortable pace in silence, meaning you damn well feel every single minute of that break, and come back well-rested and energized.

It's like socially-acceptable pure autism. Imagine if some faggot was watching the Sonic the Hedgehog OVA in the break room by himself, than suddenly just starting openly screaming about NOOO WHAT THE FUCK TAILS HOW COULD ROBOTNIK DOOOO THAT!!!!?? But instead of people getting mad and being like "what the fuck are you doing calm down about your show we're trying to eat", they look over, realize that it's the sportsball game so it's acceptable, then go back to what they were doing like some autist wasn't just screaming at the television by themselves a moment ago.

Then you've probably never worked any actual physical labour or cognitively-demanding jobs. When I worked at Blockbuster (as they were shutting down, damn shame, missed that job) they actually only gave us one 20-minute break in an 8-hour shift because you're literally just standing around or casually walking the aisles "on your feet" for the whole time. I never brought a lunch, didn't need one. Working in warehouses, or currently, as a teacher, you make damn sure you get that lunch in there somewhere or you end up getting hangry by the end of the shift.

>you're a fatty fat fuck
Fat people have slow metabolisms, digest food slowly, don't need to eat as often but end up fat BECAUSE they want to eat as often as thin people. People with fast metabolisms digest food quickly, burn it off quickly, and require more steady intake of nutrients. As someone who consistently got 3rd place in the 100-metre dash in high school, you know why the skinny fucks pack two lunches.

I tried the "I like the quiet" line, but our office is silent because one of the programmers is a level 6 autist that must have complete silence to work so nobody buys it.
I guess I could always tell them the truth, which is I eat in the breakroom because said above autist has a fucking meltdown if people eat at their desks anywhere near him and I'm tired of dealing with it.

I don't know if its corpotate cocksucking or there are automatrons ITT, but some of us are living organisms, mate.

I think it's worth mentioning Never Be At Work During Lunch. You will be asked to work through lunch (for free) at some point, if not regularly. No ill will is directed towards you if you simply aren't around, but if you are and you say no you will lose upward mobility. And the thanks for working through your lunch is fuck all. If you want to seem like a hard worker stay back late (but only as a favour for a higher up or for team work).

I go to work to fucking work not make friends.
The majority of people I've worked with were either insufferable, ask to many personal questions, or both.
I also have a thing about people watching me eat or commenting on what I'm eating.
So eating where I'm not visible is preferred.
Last job I had was in a business center (aka a dead mall repurposed for call centers) and it had a store/grill/cafe. So there were a lot of people from different companies walking around. The company I worked at had a break room but it was small and people came in and out through out the day being cunts so I avoided it. The other option was the large dining area and even then faggots I didn't even know would find reasons to approach me and interrupt my meal.
It's like the universal signal of leave me alone I'm eating should be earbuds in both ears a a person's nose in their phone or in the newspaper but I guess people are just too fucking dumb to get the hint.
Eating outside was out of the question because the center's management would throw a fit and vape fags infested the outdoors.

Before we serve the kids lunch.
Usually it goes breakfast > break in between to sort out the kitchen/do dishes/prepare for lunch > employee lunch > lunch for kids
