For some reason (perhaps not so hard to divine), I get really irritated when people suggest that I do something on my lunch break. Largely this is because I do not get a lunch break -- though I often do get free lunch when one of my bosses braves the outside world and brings me a salad or sandwich that I eat huddled over my desk.
For instance, I couldn't go to the gym this morning because there's never a membership consultant in when I go before work, and I got home last night after the gym was closed, and because I left them my number so they could call me at work and set it up but they never called, so I'm not a member yet. Also, because I'm lazy. And it's Friday.
Other things I couldn't do on my non-lunch break: pick up a prescription, sign my lease, go to the gym (also, as per the above, because I'm not a member yet), take a nap, have a drink, get a mini face lift, or see the sun.
Also, really? Like if I did get a lunch break, I'd want to spend it doing anything besides eating lunch and taking a break?
(Also also, a certain crunk-obsessed rapper is in my office right now. And lots of people are missing it and/or late for their meetings with him because they are out to lunch.)
