While it might be a common misconception that “lunch breaks” are actually used for eating lunch. In my life this is not the case.
Granted I do go out to lunch on occasion with coworkers or meet up with friends for a bite or coffee. Lunch breaks are an essential break in the day. Time to get up & get out! I typically run errands. Though as most things in my life I try to pack and much in & be as productive as possible. Sure, I can get a lot done because I live & work in a small town.
Teachers, I know you’re shaking your head…”what would I even do with a whole hour break”. Let me just say something: June, July, August.
For example: today’s agenda was
pay bills
post office
bank
picked up a skirt at old navy
sought the advice of the owner of the wine shop on something that would pair well with tonight’s dinner: “zucchini enchiladas”. James, it’s from Willamette, I hope your refined Italian pallet can handle it.
but perhaps the biggest feat of all was one day I went home and spontaneously mowed the lawn.
So, if you have a lunch break, tell me what you do on yours!
TGIF! (who am I kidding? I only worked 2 days this week!)

This year I technically got an hour lunch break and it would consist of driving home to let out the dogs and making me some type of sandwich or soup. Other times I would sit in my office and do NOTHING except mindless activities because it was my break.
wow....i WISH i got lunch breaks. i typically have to work a 9 to 11 hour shift with a couple of 5min bathroom breaks and if there's time i'll make lunch and eat bites inbetween taking orders, making pizzas, etc. sad for me.
June, July, August. Hmmm. Let me just say this: it must be nice getting paid 12 months out of the year! I wouldn't know.
It must be nice living in a small town where you can actually go somewhere and do something productive in an hour's time!
