    I have never had that long of a break, even in grade school my lunch was 15-20min including standing in line to and from the cafeteria

      some days the line moved too slow so you just didnt get to eat. also you may have lunch debt so you get your food taken away and given a cheese sandwich

      How the hell, what was you served that you could both queue and eat in under 20 minutes? I remember that awkward planning one year in school when we had something like 35 minutes and everyone was raging about it, teachers includec, we just didn’t had the time to queue, eat, get our books and be at class in time.

        You know how ex cons have that stereotype of ingesting their food in 3.5 seconds? It was like that, but with kids

          I had a coworker assume that I was some sort of felon because of this.

          No, just retail work in a shitty state that does not mandate any breaks for employees. You learn real quick how to eat a sandwich and be back on the floor in 2 minutes so your manager doesn’t jump down your throat.
