Are you all kids that have wageslave tier McDonalds jobs or something? I haven't had a job that actually cared how long I took to eat lunch since I was in college working at a pizza place.

As long as I get my work done for the day, show up for any meetings and reply to emails timely, no one gives a fuck how long I take for lunch or where I am, if they really need me they can call me cell, this is pretty much standard for any job that actual adults have.

That's one thing you guys definitely have over us and that's every employee, no matter the job or length of employment gets 1 month mandatory holiday. It can take many years to even come near 30 days and a large percentage of jobs will be lucky to even get 2 weeks after long years service here. Helk a lot of jobs never offer more than 1 week to anyone other than management.

Worked in a factory for a bit and can confirm. Do your job good for long enough and they'll let you off with quite a bit. Now I am a supervisor for a cleaning firm and I do the same to the people who turn up early and get on with their job. I'll let some of them have a cup of coffee on company time to relax a bit, or even bring them some food/coffee to them and pay it myself. The fuckers who turn up late and have shit attitudes I don't tolerate. Some realise how I am and start doing better. Friend to good workers, boss to the shit ones.

Im a receptionist at a hotel doing the graveyard shift. I do "work" checking in 3-4 guests tops, sort some paperwork shit and do a round around the hotel to make sure nobody is stealing shit or whatever once a night. So my break basically lasts 6 hours where I play warcraft, watch documentaries, talk to the guy that delivers newpsapers in the morning and sometimes sleep until the morning shift comes then I just go home. I could be working full time but I have to dress fancy for the job so I rather stay at home feeling comfy. If I want to eat I can always bring food from home but more often than not there will be food in the hotel kitchen fridge like pork roast, steaks, cooked potatoes and all kinds of veggies and fresh bread so often I just cook my stuff in the hotel kitchen.

The plus side is eating any leftover food that residents did not eat. The downside is that if management catches you, you get in serious shit even though we always throw away any excess food.

Pretty much this. Im a production analyst for a cheese company and i probably spend an hour a day walking around talking to people. Probably 15 mins about actual shit theyre doing then the rest of the time shooting the shit. Lunch? 30 mins but i just eat and work. Ill take a break whenever, we have a super nice coffee machine with raw beans, and it makes specialty coffees and hot chocolates with whipped cream. Management knows if you treat employees like retards no one likes it. The actual manual workers somedays seem like they do nothing at all. Yet we are still the worlds biggest dairy company and growing. Weird shit
