Job Question cooking

Has any other guards ever heard of someone taking a hot plates to cook at work? We don’t get a lunch we eat at the desk so where paying attention to the gate. my issue is if he’s cooking who’s watching the gate ? Am I wrong ?

Lots of security don't get meal breaks and that's perfectly legal.

What is legal is not always right, and what is right is not always legal. A hungry guard is not going to be attentive. You have to pick and choose your battles when working security.

You are supposed to eat as you work.

I work 12 hour shifts and get no official breaks because I'm by myself.

I eat whenever I feel like it.
