Would you quit a job if they didn’t give you lunch breaks

I basically have to eat at my desk, while constantly intrupeted by things happening. Or I’m given about ten or fifteen to myself if we are properly staffed.
I work 12 hour shifts, and the law says I’m entitled to at least an hour.

Have you talked to your boss about this?

Go higher, talk to hr.

Have you been there longer than your probationary period?

Yea I brought it up after he said that my taking breaks was “a bad habit he was gonna break”. So you can imagine how positive his response was. I haven’t talked to HR, but I’m considering it. @StayGold

@Rickg omfg...I would start searching for a job, if you find a lot of promising ones, call hr and explain to them what he's said, and quit if you want to, or stay to see if it's resolved. I can't believe him. 😑 What kind of work do you do if you don't mind me asking?
