I can’t get a lunch break even when working 8 hours

For context I work at Jewel Osco as a cashier and it is hell. From computers that won't register coupons that customers clip, to a wildly inconsistent schedule that makes me think the manger is just throwing darts at a board. However the main thing that takes the cake is how we work 8 hours an only get two 15 minute breaks. We can't even go to the bathroom without asking. There needs to be some sort of change but I'm too shy to ask. EDIT: for those asking I live in Illinois and I'm sometimes scheduled to work a full shift, sometimes part time shift.
