Fun Fact - Lunch is unpaid because we, as collective workers, allowed it to become unpaid. If we ALL decided to actually come together and demand otherwise, it would change. 🤔

I can’t drink alcohol during that hour amongst other things. I can’t even take a nap in my car. It should be paid because you aren’t free to do what you want

fun fact some states have laws that don't allow employers to set the time of the lunch. some factory workers use this as a way to leave "early"

That time is supposedly yours but then your boss gets mad when you don’t answer the phone during lunch

Employer here 🙋🏻♀️Hi, hello. So it is illegal to force people to work with no break after at least 6 hours. So that’s that. (Europe - Czech Republic)

MA state law says you have to punch out for 30 minutes every 6 hours. Walmart got sued for this many years ago and I got a check for like $15k

It's not the company stopping you. It's the government.

this pisses me off because it takes me 3 minutes to eat and I work an hour away from anything I'd want to do with my hour.

Blame the government for this. It's their ridiculous rules not the employer

It’s to keep companies from forcing employees to work through their lunch. If it’s off the clock, they cannot force you to work. And some places require that it is a certain time of the day to ensure they are legally in the clear
