NO LUNCH!?

That's unacceptable. Are you a nurse or something?

To all the posts about it being illegal or wrong for me to not get a lunch

break while at work.... I know it ... and you are all right.

But as I said, I work for a small company and there is nobody to give me a

break. I knew this when I took the job. Aside from this one little blurp, I

love the company I work for. The people are great. If I am sick and cant

make it to work then they tell me to get well and come back when I am

better. The best part is... they actually mean it and they ask me how I am

when I return. Even the morning girl who has to work 10 hours to cover my

shift while I ams sick welcomes me back and is glad that I am well.

So, if missing out on my lunch break is the price I have to pay to work in

a great environment... then so be it.

Thank you all for your concern.

It will all work out in the end

Kym
