I realized that last comment makes me sound a bit like a mooch because other ppl drive me. In reality, I'm new to this office location so I have no idea where I am going in suburban hell. Sometimes I do drive, but the guys at work prefer the legroom in their own car rather than shoving 3 tall boys into my car. Or I walk to the Korean buffet place when the weather is reasonable. But really, I don't pack my lunch because I would never leave my desk except to pee. (I work a lot.) ooh ooh.

I have clients now. I also get to pee whenever I want and I don't have my 'availability' measured daily anymore. Sorry to hear you have to deal with that kind of crap. I actually eat my lunch at my desk and read for work. So technically I have have a 0 minute lunch or else 15 minute break to go pick it up. Lulugal11: Yes, that is exactly the point. But for me, balancing a moment away from my desk and gas savings is a no-brainer. I prefer to buy my lunch because it FORCES ME to leave my desk. (see the msg I left for Udandi) I actually don't use that much gas to get lunch since someone else usually drives me anyway because I don't know where I am going.
