so now my boss tells me that i am required to take an hour for lunch, instead of the half hour i've been taking. when i was hired, i was told that it was up to me to decide that. so now, i have to be here half an hour more than i used to, and then i'll have to fight much heavier traffic then before. for the sake of uniformity in the department, he says.

bullshit.

people are allowed to show up anytime between 7 and 9:30, as long as we're working our 8 hours. we can take lunch whenever we want, take breaks whenever we want, and as often as we feel is neccessary. where's the uniformity there?

if they make us all take lunch at the same time, i'll quit. the reason i took a permanent position here was because of the flexibility. i can avoid everyone else in my department without too much of a problem. take that away from me and i have no reason to stay here.
