FP Edit: You glorious antisocial bastards
gettingkrunked
Me too. I get extremely annoyed when people lean over what I'm eating just to say ooooohhhh that looks good. All I'm thinking is die cunt
percivaldanvers
I know a lot of people that do this. I don't think its that unusual
Yulala
Same. I'm at work 10 hours a day in a customer service environment,
Yulala
As a manager. I love my staff, but I need time to zone out and decompress.
wardamneagle77
Watcha eating? Some none of your fucking business go the fuck away
tallkan2
Headphones work too!
MadMupp
I hear that, mainly because all they talk about is work. Unfortunately I work nights so sitting in my car means freezing to death
xuriV
yeah lol. Between stocking I use my lunch break as nap time. extra hood scrunched tight and a lil blanket.
HoneNathan
I got told off by my boss (really my boss's boss told her to tell me off) for playing FGO on my lunch break instead of socialising!
Wolfe65
Mate I genuinely get along with my coworkers. I know their kids and break time I wouldn't acknowledge them if on fire. Gotta remove & recoup
mikeatike
I always wear headphones when I am at my desk at work. I often am not listening to anything. I just don't want to be distrubed.

Not bad. Earlier I was listening the soundtrack of Universe SImulator 2: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MQfnhC12Oqc
BaseballHugGuy
This gets worse when they want to talk about work during break... I love my car
Jawesome19
Pretty much everyone I work with does this and we all like each other. Being with them 8-10 hours a day is enough, gotta get a break
Barnone4
I work IT and find that if I don't eat alone everyone is asking me IT questions. I'M TRYING TO EAT HERE PEOPLE--food plate means nothing?
ChelsTehHazelnut
IT for who if I may ask? Pretty much EVERYONE at my work does some sort of IT in some way.
Barnone4
I work help desk for an educational institution. Serving the employees and students.
soulman901
I work in IT. Try to take Lunch in Breakroom. No go, people lining up for me to solve their problems. I eat out now.
JonnehxD
"Open a ticket and come see me after lunch. "
LeahLynda
I actually used to work in IT and can confirm. An icy stare and "I'm on my lunch break" would see them off. Some people are so rude
Squelchtone
then they tell everyone how IT is rude.. (I'm IT admin and cant take lunch in peace either.. oh hey you're here, I have quick question.)
HueTheHuman
i take earlier as hell or late breaks to avoid people. specifically a dude that thinks he has a singing/rapping career
WhyAmIHereIShouldBeWorking
As a cashier in a superstore, the last thing I want to do on my break is talk to yet more people.
theshoeminator
I worked in the deli, found a spot in a storage area above the coolers in the back that no one knew about so I could have 30 min of peace.
Acefowl
Same, and 100% agreed. Lunch time is me time.
ellert0
Aye, 5 years as cashier and I just wanted to be alone during breaks, now work a different job and am okay with being social during breaks.
MessedUpAaron
Everyday for the last 7 years. I freaking cannot stand work drama. I'd literally much rather eat my own dick. My car is MY place at work.
Lurkingoff
Currently on lunch avoiding all human contact as well
AWildYetiHasAppeared
I do the same...I go home and eat lunch with my dog
dachicken
What's your dog eat? Just curious. Or does dog just stare at yours like this O_O like mine did.
Theotherotheraccount
Actually in my car, on break right now, as I'm reading this!!! Couldn't agree more.
IgoPPstandingUp
Same here
AyeAyeCaptainTightpants
Same. I love my coworkers but I also love my alone time.
CoolHandFluke
Same
billymaditsdone
Same, though somebody parked next to me and it's become awkward.
Theotherotheraccount
Just openly stare at them until they move their car.
Danmanbadman
Depending on where you are you take breaks really early
Theotherotheraccount
I work twelve hour shifts, that was first break, 9 a.m.
MossyMoose
Yeah another 12 hour shift bro! I only have to work 3 days a week its fuckin' rad
Theotherotheraccount
I usually work 12 out of every 14 days, but that's by choice. Trying to get ahead. Regular schedule is 3 days one week 4 days the next.
Iamtoofuckinghighforthisshit
Lucky to work close enough to my house, that I can go to and eat leftovers, saves money, and see my doggos.
bguffield
Lucky bastard.
Iamtoofuckinghighforthisshit
Lol. Seriously?
bguffield
Hell, yes!
thedeg
Did this at a job where every motherfucker in there chewed with their mouth open.
SterlingDangerZoneArcher
I did this my senior year of high school. Had plenty of friends to sit with, just needed a break from people is all.
butterflyash
Yup. I liked the quiet time.
KimTheGreat
I'm in HS right now and my school has a policy that only permits students to remain in the cafeteria during lunch times. It sucks.
Zapzoroath
My work had a potluck on black Friday. I still went out to my car and listened to podcasts.
AbsoluteFuckingWaffle
Nothing to be ashamed about, mate. You fucking enjoy that alone time.
bguffield
You do realize they're just workmates and not friends, right? You don't have to socialise with them when not working.
AbsoluteFuckingWaffle
I...uh...I do realise that. Hence why I said there was nothing to be ashamed about.
bguffield
Sorry, I replied to the wrong comment. I know you realise that. I meant to reply to the OP.
AbsoluteFuckingWaffle
No worries, man. You're good.
Aejiss
Fucking goddamn waffle
DrFingerWeenie
I tried wearing headphones so people would leave me alone, but some fucker would always come up and try and start a conversation. I
Gamebuster19901
Literally just say "I don't want to talk". They won't want to talk to you anymore.
ZOMGNO
OMG, I had the same problem. I'm clearly busy, and I still get talked to. I just wanted a flat table to eat on, I didn't wanna talk.
Ilikeyogurt
Act like you’re on a phone call when they approach?I would do this every time I was alone and everybody else had someone to talk to*sad beep
DrFingerWeenie
I can only fake a conversation for so long, they just sit there with their stupid faces waiting for me to finish so they could talk to me.
ZOMGNO
OMG, I had the same problem. I'm clearly busy, and I still get talked to. I just wanted a flat table to eat on, I didn't wanna talk.
HawkthePlayer
Snap, I eat lunch in the server room for the same reason.
johnnydangerous
Server room should not allow food or drink. But yeah.
HawkthePlayer
It’s a big room, with a separate room away from the servers. Users have no access.
MufasaKingGray
Depends on job I guess, when I worked as a LEO I looked forward to lunch at 2AM... not in my patrol car.
ChelsTehHazelnut
What's a LEO?
MufasaKingGray
Just what he said Law Enforcement Officer (Police Officer)
barotrauma
going to guess law enforcement officer considering he said patrol car.
ChelsTehHazelnut
Yeah, I just want to know what it stands for exactly, I have a family history of law enforcement.
Legionofboom
Take that time to decompress and not think about work, best part of the workday.
jdpt
I used to do that, the walk to my car was roughly 10 minute
twistedviking
That's why I'm glad I have a killer shooting range 4 minutes from the office. Dump 100 rounds and go back to dealing with broken shit.
GripLOG
I get 2 15 min breaks and a 30 min lunch. I sit in my car for every single one to play ultra moon and watch Netflix. And still getting paid!
ATrebuchetCanLaunchA90KgProjectile300M
I dissagree, the best part of the work day is quitting time.
NoRoomForVegetarians
If you dislike your work that much, you should do something else. Everyone has 24h in a day, it's up to you what you do with it.
GrimmClaw
But playing video games and drinking mountain dew don't pay the bills... right?
FsImgur
Yeah, it's hard being a stripper, but when you graduate to escorting - they'll be eating you for lunch.
CatInARedBox
KapnKershaw
For me, it's pushing open the door on my way out.
YourFaceIsAnInsult
Agreed. I watch 10 to 15min of Netflix from the show I am binge watching. It is the best part of my day.
GreenClouds
How long is your lunch break? I give my employees an hour
Gamebuster19901
20min for me
YourFaceIsAnInsult
I can take an hour if I want to but I have a lot of stuff to do. And I take a couple 5 or 10min zone out breaks throughout the day.
Leroux2008
I take an hr lunch as well. Let the binging begin.
Sinergy3
I'm a cook. What is a break?

No one talks about "rule 34" anymore, at least not in public. Refer to rule 17.

Lot easier to eat and read in your head then balance 30 min trying to eat and talk
catsleepingonflowers
Very strange how people get offended when you tell them you just want to eat and mind your own business
margaretolson
I have one coworker who acts like a child throwing a tantrum when I ignore her calls/messages while on my lunch. It's unpaid. Fuck off!
catsleepingonflowers
Exactly. Everyone can fuck all the way off when I'm on my break.
theroaringjunior
It's the worst when someone starts talking to you about the book you're sitting there trying to read. Lol.
ThePastmaster
Or just starts talking to you then gets hissy when you don't respond. I'M READING, YOU DOLT!
Leroux2008
My co-workers love to come in and talk about how good my food smells and make me feel guilty about not sharing lol.

I'm very fortunate to have an office, so I just eat in here and browse dank memes

You living the dream!
margaretolson
I have an office and an unpaid hour, but people still interrupt me with work shit almost daily.
awildcharmander
Oh, yeah there are many people with stupid problems all the time, but they at least give me my lunch break haha

It's so fucking annoying, especially cause they can easily figure it out themselves/get the answer elsewhere. Yesterday a coworker asked 1/
