So how is a 1 hour lunch a flex again?

[daemonova]

I've seen that too..

It's a dude at my current job who was bragging about how much "more money he's making now" "I don't have to sit in the cheap seats no mo" I don't have to eat captain Ds no mo, now I can go to red lobster"... This nikka had his Playstation Portal out at work back when them shyts first came out. I knew right then it's just a matter of time..

Sure enough within a month he got into a petty argument with a coworker that quickly escalated (because who would dare disagree with Mr. Red lobster now).. which resulted in him telling the guy "I'm from the Chi, playing with me you'll get dealt with" as he proceeded to take his lunch break. And that was the last time he was seen on the premises


That nikka really though he had a job to come back to after threatening someone



Just do your job, stfu and be humble

The reaction is what they want

Gotta grow up in the corporate world, especially if you a black man. Can't be threatening people. Now you back to eating Captain Ds

Never been officially threatened but I've been called a punk and a bish a few times.

Assaulted a few times

That nikka said minimum

 

[daemonova]

That nikka said minimum

Back when I worked Lowe's we was good for stretching out 15 minutes break to 25 plus, hour lunch to 75 mints

 

[ItsPeople]

In the real world and not 7 figure coli world?

That nikka said minimum

Tech sector breh(Sys Engineer), get all my work done by 11, send emails out at 11:45 dip out at 12, get back to the office by 2:30. Then I respond at 4:15 which few people want to respond to as they are leaving work...

I send the emails right at that time because I know hardly anyone responds to emails during lunch hour which spans between 12 to 2 in tech.

People juggle their times which results a 2:30 response or even later.

On a super empty office day, I'll have my teams active, then go see a movie, come back to the office and act like nothing happened...

That's just in-person...

WFH is better, get food shopping, car repairs, and errands done w/n problem as long as I can remote to my servers...

Damn smh

Nothing worse than having to start over somewhere else because of your own doing

Imagine trying to go get lunch in a big city with a 30 minute break You’re going to use that whole 30 just to get there and back. My job is a lenient with out breaks so I’m good

 

[Buckeye Fever]

It cost 10 dollars more for Doordash for me yesterday because I was tired.

Sometimes you gotta save yourself, even if you gotta drop a lil more $$$$

I understand

Feels like prison where I work.

Security gate

Security dressed like police

Black suburban outside with blue and white lights on the top

Group managers and section managers posted throughout, making sure workers aren't out of their areas during non-break times

If it's a 1 hour lunch, it's 8 to 5

If it's a 30 min lunch it's 8 to 4


I'm taking the later every day. Where do you work?

For a large black advertising agency. Here's the thing, you get off at 4, sit in traffic, by the time you get home... you are already in the process of winding down or handling business.

If you take advantage of that hour, even though its the time for a mental break you'll unlock new levels. Sometimes i'd gym it, sometimes I'd bring a cooler and hit the store. Whatever helps keep my life on track cuz if I wait til after work, 50% chance it gets done.

30 min lunch breaks for 12 hour shifts is kinda crazy tbh

 

[Smokin Rider]

What if you only got 30 minutes lunch but take an hour everyday because nobody is keeping watch
