"Give me a break" is probably what all the workers are saying.

Who the hell wants to work through lunch and not get a break? Who the hell thinks that's more productive or better in any way?

No! We want to work more for less benefits!!!! Let's just skip nourishment and a brief rest, that won't backfire at all. /s

The only reason I can see being, if they aren't paid for the half hour, they might want to cut it and go home a half hour early.

Right? And what would end up happening is losing the break, but still having to work til the same end time. Ugh.
