What do you have for lunch in such a short period of time then? Can you even go home and make your own food?
45 minutes is slightly better but I'm still astonished by all this. I wouldn't complain the standard was from 9-7 here just so we could wake up as late as you guys, but no way I'd ever accept having less than 2 hours for lunch. Food is sacred!

Well at least we have two coolers stocked up with all kinds of free Coca-Cola products
On second thought, free Coca-Cola products are sacred as well
Have you ever had Guaraná Jesus? It's one of our local Coca-Cola company products:
THIS STUFF IS SO GOOD!!! (and incredibly sweet... and pink)

Well it depends... some days, I can niggle my way home to work from there in the afternoon, and just eat at home. Or leave work an hour early instead of taking a lunch break. Or I can bring lunch to work (cough!shutupyou). Or often I can get something fast from nearby... it's not too expensive or unhealthy if you aren't a total dumbass, but this is usually a last resort.

Oh, it's not as bad as I first thought then
For some reason I thought that's why there are so many more fast-food chains in the US

Jesus fuck. I don't even get a lunch break, even when I work a 12 hour shift (granted I do fuck-all at the store, but still).
I'm pretty sure for every 8-hours you work you are legally allowed a 30-minute lunch, but most offices allow an hour. Really, though, unless you live close by there isn't enough time to go home so you run to the nearest fast food/deli/quick lunch spot, but it is pretty busy. When I work at Jimmy Johns in the summer I see people in line for over a half an hour. Pretty lame.

Sometimes I book a conference room for 3 hours and turn my phone off, just so I can have a nap.
or Guaraná Jesus (Gayrana). I promise you won't regret it
