Coffee.

Banter your colleagues.

Smoke.

Work through your lunch and finish early! Or work and get paid extra. Fuck wasting an hour of my life every day looking for something to do. I eat my free lunch from work in a few minutes then carry on working.

Lol, you will find most employers will dictate your working hours, that is when you leave, when you work and what you get paid for, not you... I will hazard a guess that he's in the situation where he gets paid regardless of whether he works or not and doesn't have the luxury of just finishing early or getting paid for it. Not to mention how detrimental working your lunch every day can be...

Eat lunch, check the news, play games on the computer, bit of banter with colleagues, go out for a drive (maybe?) and have a dump if needs be. Oh and if you smoke, do that.

You absolutely DO NOT under ANY circumstances, take a shit on your lunch break. Ever. Seriously, shit break time is better than lunch time. You're getting paid to take a shit, what can be better than that? Even better if you take your shoes off. Fact.

I would go for a piss, as the toilet is only outside my door and down the stairs and it's never fun trying to hold a piss in, but sitting there taking a shit and drawing it out, all the while knowing I'm getting paid to evacuate my bowels, is an awesome feeling. Taking a piss happens too quick for me to think about that.

I finished the android version before it was updated a few months ago. Haven't bothered with it since! I don't tend to take my phone in with me, I leave it out on the desk and I think it looks a bit weird if I pick my phone up and take it to the toilet...

monday - food and a sleep in the car (hanging from the weekend)
tuesday and wednesday - go meet my mates for food and chat when they was on lunch.
thursday - mc donalds
friday - work on my lunch and finish a hour earlier than everyone else ha

Hmm yeah I see where you're coming from man but I start a new job on Monday and I don't think they'll be too happy if I take my mid morning shit while someone's trying to train me up tbh. Usually a good 10 minute operation for me even for a quick one. Once I've got my feet under the table I think I'll be take shit breaks as and when but I've got to try and keep it to a minimum for a few weeks.

Knowing me I won't be able to hold it until the lunch break tbh - when a boy's got to go, he's got to go... :y:

Oh and consider that comment sig fodder sir! :P

Well, when you start a new job you obviously can't be taking the mick with a shit break, but yeah once your feet are under the table, that's when you strike. I couldn't take a shit for a good while, was too nervous! Also can't shit whilst out at a clients most of the time, can't take too long, everyone knows, and you never know what to do if the bog roll is low or none existent...

Nothing worse than holding it in, jumping on the shitter, laying a cable to then look for the bog roll when there is none

Yeah man that's what I'm worried about tbh... let alone about the job itself haha. I always find if you don't think about it, you're generally OK (easier said than done tbh) but definitely think shit breaks will be in lunch breaks for a few weeks.

Baaaaad times :(

I find I can generally control when I need a shit based on what I have for breakfast, if at all, and how much coffee I drink...

Wow, a thread on lunch time activities has ascended in to a fully blown poo topic. Excellent.

It's a rare occasion that I don't lay cable of a morn tbh. I could blame it on the nerves for the first few weeks though, thinking about it... :y:

How is working your lunch break detrimental?

Anyway, I finish work at about the same time most of you start your lunch breaks so I can't complain. Fair play if you get paid for your lunch break but I'd hate wasting an hour unpaid! At my old job I'd have 15/20 minutes and clock back in to earn the extra money. Not that I needed the money as such but it was more interesting than sat doing fuck all.

Did you not read what I said? The majority don't have the option of deciding whether or not to be paid for working their lunch, so for the majority, there is no point in working.

It's detrimental because you work better with breaks, fact. It's also much better to take a break from work and really clear your mind of it. They used to enforce lunch breaks on the stock market and close trading to force people to have a lunch break as it resulted in better trades and better work. Read about it.

Yeah like I say if you have no choice then so be it, but if you have a choice then I wouldn't bother. I don't have a choice, I don't get a break that's that. I don't have a single set break but it works better that way. There's no way I could disappear for 15/20 minutes doing what I do. Fair enough on stock exchange and what not thats proper stressful work.

Anyone else find that once they have a break and sit down when they start work again they feel dead and really can't be bothered?

+1 to working through dinner breaks, I dont get a set dinner break so i just have a few mini breaks through out the day. Work on price work so when the jobs done its done, either pays for days off or do more work for extra cash.

yup we have three brakes a day, two 15 mins and half hour unpaid lunch, once i start work after them most days i feel like i cant really be bothered and dead. but i would not get paid for working my lunch so there is no point.

I need breaks at work, even if it's just going down to make a drink. I loose focus if I'm staring into a costing sheet or a long email to a supplier for too long and start to over think stuff so I go to the loo, make a drink then get back to it. Makes all the difference!
