Comment on Finally HR does something right
Appoxo@lemmy.dbzer0.com 1 day agoWhere does a break count towards work hours?
Seems completely unlogical to me.
Break is you-time not company-time.
It’s time I can’t be doing things I’d like to be, because It’s in the middle of a workday.
The company wants me to pay it for any inconvenience I cause it, the same should apply in the other direction. I already give up time for nothing in the commute they insist on in order to validate the existence of middle management and their investment in real estate, you want me to take the break I biologically need to be effective at work as unpaid too?
Shill harder.
Doesnt matter and I am not shilling.
I can go home and do stuff at home I can do in my free time the same way I can on a free/vacation day.
The workplace accomodates recovery/sustenance time to refuel your body to do more stuff.
If you skip break to run errands instead of doing it after work, that’s a you-problem.

Places in the U.S. even used to have paid lunch. Now the only way you get a paid lunch is if your salary.

Seems weird to me.
Paid vacation is more or less the same though.
Both seem weird.
Though I am not complaining about it. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
