I work in an office. I do software.
At my job I am required to take a 1 hour unpaid lunch break. I asked my manager if I could take a 15 minute break and leave 45 minutes early— 4:15 instead of 5:00. The answer was “no.” I can't take a 15 minute lunch, but I still have to stay until 5:00.
Anyone else think this is stupid? I just want to avoid rush hour and not waste 45 minutes if my day 5 days a week waiting for my lunch break to end.
