Good luck with the interview, Wolfram.
In other news, I should not be allowed to shop at the gourmet grocery while ravenous. I spent over $50 on three little plastic bags of food last night. Admittedly, I can get 8 or 9 healthy sandwiches on really good bread out of the contents, but still. And I now have white asparagus, for no good reason whatsoever.

Big Boss sent out a chastising e-mail this morning informing us that breaks are a privilege, and that we are not to treat them as "social events."

Good thing your job makes up for it with fantastic benefits, lots of OT and vacation, a private office and really satisfying work projects.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
Are breaks a privilege?

Shit's all sorts of different now.
Actually, in Michigan, it's not. Employers in Michigan are not legally required to give meal times or regular breaks.

Wait, is this real-world child support, where the money goes to buy food for the kids, or MRA fantasyland child support where the women just buy Ferraris and cocaine? -Jessica
