How often do you eat lunch at your desk? Just wondering really might be quite interesting to see some of the answers and reasons why you do what for lunch.

[mickevh]

All the time. Too busy to take lunch breaks.

Always eat at my desk, usually after I've been for a run.

[rickinyorkshire]

I either go to Subway or eat a pack up, we are not allowed to eat at our desks.

I 99% of the time eat at my desk while I work, usually on fridays I will eat out somewhere though.

I work in London and always find it really strange seeing people going for runs on their lunch breaks, something about running in the concrete jungle just doesnt look right to me

[Kebabhead]

Always at desk as bring my own lunch and canteen is on the floor below so more convenient to eat at desk

[mjn]

Always at desk, doesn't mean i'm working though

[Coffin]

Sometimes but I try to avoid it

My boss only eats at his desk during a working day, breakfast and lunch

[oakie]

I like to eat my dinner sat on the toilet, that way i save time and get 2 things done at once.

I work in Glasgow, three minutes and I'm on a path next to the river Clyde and on to Glasgow Green. Is nice.

Agree with you though - I'd hate to be breathing exhaust constantly. I rarely go running outdoors when in London.

How on earth in your lunch hour do you find time to change clothes/run/clean yourself up/change clothes/eat?

[razz1979]

I don't have a desk where is my option?

Something about running full stop if you ask me, i think people should only run if late for something ,and then make it look like a brisk walk

We've got shower facilities on each floor of the building, so takes me 5 minutes to change, just over half an hour to run a little over 4 miles, 15 minutes to shower and change, and then another 20-25 minutes to get some food and eat it...okay, that comes to about an hour and a quarter, but I usually work a minimum of an extra 1-1.5 hours a day, so it's not really a problem.

Excellent having shower facilitates available

I prefer to leave the office and go out, but that sometimes isn't always practical. We actually get a lunch allowance at work which you order in the previous day which is an incentive to save money and eat while you work. Nice to break it up a bit though as it can get a bit boring.

[Miyazaki]

I don't have a desk job thank Christ.

[kopchoir]

If your eating lunch at your desk are you all still working or do you actually take a break

I only get 30mins lunch break and i always leave the work area cant be eating lunch in theatre

[Fozzybear]

Not working at the moment but when I was I would go outside at lunchtimes, would go and lean on a gate looking over a meadow just by the company site and munch on a granola bar while relaxing and watching the birds. At my previous job I'd sometimes eat at my desk, sometimes go for a walk in the park.

[Dancook]

We don't have time off for lunch, or breaks. We have an 8 hour day in which we decide what time we want to put aside for such things

I eat a tuna salad at my desk, and then continue working once I've eaten it.. not much else to do here, I surf when I feel like it anyway.

I wish I worked near the sea.

Thats inefficient, why not just throw your lunch straight into the toilet, cutting out the middle man ?

hah, I was going to say it was just canned tuna... but the surfing gave it away huh.

[Iccz]

I put "eat away from my desk", I have to desks, one of which has my computer etc which is my main workstation, but when I eat I move over to my other desk as its clearer, I don't want hygiene to be an issue when eating at the computer as crumbs can get in the keyboard etc, can be an issue of hygiene then, so I always eat away from my computer etc, but still technically at my desk.

I'm mobile so sometimes i eat at a desk, sometimes in a canteen, sometimes in the van, sometimes in a cafe, the possibilities are endless.
