6/16/2023 Question of the day

Take Back the Lunch Break Day: When you're at work (or when you worked or were still going into the office), did you fall into the habit of eating at your desk and continuing to work while eating? Did your working conditions include a proper lunch break? If you're mostly working from home, do you still eat at your desk and continue working during your lunch?

The first 6 months of my previous job, I was a contractor and therefore required by some combination of state and federal regulations to spend an entire half an hour in the middle of the day not doing anything work-related. And I hated that. I'd rather check my favorite tech news site, catch up on Ask a Manager, and then get back to work so I can have more free time in the evening.
