A collection of some classic Lemmy memes for your enjoyment
I didn't like my old job, but the one thing I really miss was having a full hour for lunch and being located directly next door to a park
I'd go hang my hammock up between a couple trees and set an alarm on my phone to take a nap, it was pretty damn great.
In my opinion, this is mostly great only for salary folks. As an hourly worker, an hour lunch break means I'm away from home for an extra hour. Also, as someone who travels to many locations, I'd much rather eat on the road than sit down and wait until lunch is over, especially if it's mandatory...
???
Every job I've ever had - had the lunch unpaid. Hourly or Salary you're ass is there a minimum of 8 hours and 30 minutes.
Only difference is if you're there 10 hours. The Hourly guy gets paid extra. The salary man gets told to go fuck himself. "Salary Exempt"
Interesting. I work 10 hour shifts 4 days a week with a 30 minute unpaid break, so my schedule is 8am to 630pm, and am required to clock out from 1:30-2p. I leave my house at 7:05am and get home around 720pm. My salaried boss takes a 1 hour break and works from 745a to 345p five days a week. I MUST take my break at 130 for "liability" reasons. My boss takes his break anywhere from 1145 to 2, and if he waits too late to eat he just skips it and leaves early. I wish the lunch break was paid, even those stupid 30 extra minutes would be a game changer for my "work life balance".
Generally I agree, but I do carve out a narrow exemption for that particular hourly job, it was in a warehouse so pretty physical, I was on my feet all day, carrying around heavy boxes and such, and with the specific job I had I was often the first one there in the morning and basically always the last to leave, so I really wanted that nap in the middle of the day
Same here from when I was working in the field. If I'm driving, I can count it as working so I go home after 8 hours instead of 9 or 8.5 or whatever.
