Antiwork

I just started a factory today and get only two 10 minute breaks for 8 hours, no lunch.

This is in Indiana. I couldn’t believe it when I was told this. Two 10 minute breaks with no lunch over 8 hours for $15 an hour. This business has around 10 factories throughout the US, at the one I’m at I’d say around 80% of the people that work there are Latin American and most speak very broken English. I have no issue with that and am only saying because it seems like they do what they do because they know they won’t be reported by the majority of there workers. I believe it’s illegal anyways. I thought you had to have a reasonable amount of time to eat your lunch by law. I’m just looking for suggestions on things I might be able to do to improve the break situation because other than that it’s a decent place to work.
