your car? break room? cafeteria, if you have one? or do you escape the building entirely?
>>21686978A literal underground canteen with 2 microwaves and the bare kitchenware, I have my lunch at an odd hour so it's usually empty and very comfy, it's where I browse Nigchan in the mornings too
>>21686978I go home for lunch so I can let my doggy outside
At my table. In the break room when we order stuff together
When I worked on site, and had an hour long lunch break, I'd often go to the historic riverfront that was about 10 minutes away and eat in the park. Afterwards I could take a nice little stroll through old streets of 300 year-old brick buildings and enjoy the fresh air.
>>21686978i dont eat lunch and i leave 30 mins early
I don't eat lunch. I'm not a fucking idiot.
>>21686978I eat a single hardboiled egg, an apple and a 12oz bottle of whole milk every day for lunch. I just snack on it at my desk while working over the course of about an hour. Been doing this for 22 years
>>21686978I go home and eat a egg cheese sandwich. Never gets old. Takes 5 mins. Not too filling, cuz only an idiot would stuff themselves and have to come back and work.
The 2 years I didn't neet and worked an office job, I would just go for a walk and eat on a bench or sit in the grass somewhere.When it was raining I'd eat at my desk until some retard started bothering me all the time that I should eat in the cafeteria with them, so I moved to my car instead.Fuck these Karen's and Franks who think I was there for anything else than to make money and go home.
>>21687439lmao
I haven't worked in an office for a while, but I used to leave the office to slightly nearby bars and have a beer or two and watch ESPN. I had to be there 8-5+ no matter what, so I sure as fuck wasn't going to sit at my desk and work more, or the office cafeteria, where I'd just have to talk more about work like a free meeting.At one of those jobs it was literally written into the employee agreement that you could have 1-2 beers at lunch to give salesmen a loophole for drinking with clients, but I took advantage. At the other two jobs no one really sat close enough to know.I wasn't going to sit in the office, fuck that.
stairwell or the roof if its cool enough outside. usually I’ll just eat in my office
I always leave the office for lunch, but breakfast at my desk, early in the morning, when there's almost no one else there, is actually quite nice.
>>21687629THANKS FOR REMINDING ME OF FACEBOOK'S COMMUNITY GUIDELINES STUPID JEETNIGGER YOU MAY NOW KYS
>>21687629Anime is mainstream now anon, has been for over a decade. People would look at you strangely for seeing somebody with an anime tshirt and screaming about attraction to kids. You would be an odd one in polite society and surely do not belong on a website with anime culture so ingrained that it's on banners for non-anime boards.
>>21686978I sit in the corner of the work cafeteria, facing the wall. I intentionally try to time getting to the cafeteria after everyone else so people are already sitting down and not looking for a place to sit (ie next to me)
At my desk. If I eat in the break area people will make small talk with me and I loathe talking to the people outside of my project.
>>21686978I would kill myself before I'd go back to working in an office
>>21686978As a remote worker chad, I have the free time and resources to cook a full course meal for lunch every day during work hoursDuring my short tenure as an in-office employee, I'd generally bring some homemade lunch to the nearest cafeteria and eat with my work buddies. I'd then take a nap after eating until lunch break was over.
>>21686978I have an office but eat in the break room because my Indian officemate ruins my appetite
>>21686978I dont. I wait when I am home.
Would /ck/ agree that it's important to adapt to an office culture and follow the herd when starting out there?If the rest of the office/studio/team takes lunch at their desk, you need to as well, etc.
>>21688929No. Do not ever follow the herd for anything that is not explicitly work related. If you don't want to take lunch at your desk go eat in your car or in the breakroom. If they pester you about it just tell them you don't want to make your work area messy with food.
>>21688929If there's a common group hang out spot then yes. If everyone just eats by themselves then go wherever you want
Nice. I pass on lunch most of the time nowadays. I used to have a great spot at a former job w\ a secluded balcony that overlooked downtown... that was such a peaceful lunch time spot.
>>21688169I'm allowed to drink at my job, but I don't because drinking just feels like a way to casually wind down after the day for me. I don't like making anything a work drug, used to smoke a lot more pot before I started only doing it after work and when I was off. Like sure grabbing a nice espresso martini (Yeah I'm a 30-something ex-hipster in Brooklyn, right under that tall black building in OPs pic is my Trader Joes) but I know that Espresso Martini tastes a lot better after finishing work, without worrying about getting back by a certain time. I've learned that bowl is better smoked to conclude the shift. Frankly even uppers it's better to take a pill to keep the night going and fuck like a machine than it is to do wage slave work like a machine. It's not even like it makes you do anything better, it just makes you feel better about what you're doing.
>>21686978in my car (my sanctuary)
>>21688929It helps to make friends with people early on if you can, and join in on some rituals... but eating at your desk isn't something you should do right off the bat because then the expectation is you're always going to skip your lunch and work a minimum 9+ hours. If you're not getting off early for eating at your desk, or can't fuck around at your desk for an hour (browse the web, play a game, read a book, etc.), don't do it. I've worked in offices where if you're at your desk, the only thing you're allowed to be doing is working. Like, the company VPN blocks non-essential websites, leadership will be walking by so you can't play a game on your lunch break or they'll think you're playing on company time... it's all shitty.>>21688951Well, I don't like to eat lunch during work since it gives me the afternoon shits, so drinking a beer or two and decompressing was a decent compromise. I'd get back to work and feel more relaxed to finish up the afternoon.
>>21686978I recognize that as the seaport area that look at Brooklyn. I eat lunch there every day. If I find you im going to attack you OP. Im a lawyer btw
>>21686978i dont work lol. im above that.
>>21686978I don't want to eat at work.I like to enjoy my meal, and part of that enjoyment comes from being in the comfort of my home and taking my time (and shitposting).And this >>21687484>only an idiot would stuff themselves and have to come back and workI like to eat big volumes of food, so you know, gotta be at home to pig out.>>21687448How do you snack on that for an hour?
>>21686978The Taco Bell lobby
>>21686978Car. It's warm, there's music. Normally I would never eat in my car but I like to escape physically from the office and my coworkers.>>21688929Not with eating. Lunch is personal time, it should be respected and distinct, unless it's like a party or potluck then you have to be social.
>>21686978Not an office worker, but if I'm taking a lunch at work it's in my carSpeaking of office work, what do you people actually do? IMO if you have a job which can be done from home and you're not an artist, programmer, or something like that, you don't have a real job. Far too many overpaid useless fuckers in this country.
>>21686978At the cafeteria, it's pretty good both in quality and price. I had roast pork with mushroom sauce last time and it was around 6 euros for a sizeable portion.We have a guy on the team who eats a ton every time and he still hasn't paid more than 10 euros.
>>21686978on the toilet so I get a longer break
>>21686978I steal the lunch from my coworkers and flush it down with some breastmilk
>>21688640Grim
>>21689196yup
>>21690212Even after 10 years, my shits are still generally around the time I used to work in a place that was super strict with break time.
>>2169031911:30 btw
>>21690309Do we live just to suffer?
