I have one hour to leave my desk, get to my car, drive to a place, order food, get food, and drive back.

At the same time that everyone else is doing the same thing so Ill probably be stuck in a long drive thru line

How the fuck do people go to sit-down places for lunch breaks

A lot of jobs don't really have a strict time limit for lunch. You just sorta leave when you feel like it and come back whenever you're done.

Yeah, I almost always bring my lunch, so this is never an issue. On the rare times I got out with coworkers, we don't really worry about it even though we are only supposed to get an hour max. Our supervisors have never said anything if we were a bit late.

Depending on how long it takes me to get food sometimes I can get a round in at the disc course before having to get back. Mind, thats an hour lunch break.

My job doesn't give me a strict time limit for lunch breaks. My last job didn't either. At my old job, there were a few times where we would go to a brunch spot and be gone for like 3 hours and then we'd come back and no one said anything.

Honestly, most people just eat at their desk. Company culture is such that it always causes raised eye brows when we see people leave for "lunch"

Really? Most jobs are just cool with not having strict lunch break periods? Hmm, I didn't realize that.

I just outright stopped eating at work. I keep some cup of noodles around in the rare emergency situation where I'm starving

I eat in my classroom even though they say don't do that and you need a break from your work I just rather get some time alone.

I work nights somewhere where there's nothing open 24 hours for us to go and eat at... But I do work at a grocery store so I can just buy my lunch at work...

I'm salaried in an office job, I could go sit down and eat somewhere for lunch if I wanted to. But I usually eat with coworkers so I'll either bring my lunch or go somewhere close, pick it up and head back.

Our lunches in the breakroom have definitely taken upwards of 90 minutes at times when we don't have that much to do

Nobody cares if you go out for 90 minutes or 2 hours once in a while. Don't abuse it.

If your company has you strictly on the clock, maybe you're screwed.
