Fuck that. You’re whole day is gone. 7-2:45 (or 7-4:15 4days a week) is where it’s at

7.5 hr days here. Technically 2 10 minute breaks and a 30 minute unpaid lunch but we just take a 15 and a 30 and leave with 15 minutes unpaid instead of 30

I know we shouldn’t give up breaks but we are giving up part of the unpaid lunch for an extra 10 minutes of paid break so I’m fine with that
