If I have enough time to leave the office, I leave. Most of the time when I work for someone else I only get a 30 minute lunch break so I barely have time to eat let alone wait in line somewhere to get lunch. When I work for myself, I take as much time as I need to get my breaks. It depends. If I have enough time to leave the office, I leave.

Life is too short to not enjoy a bite of lunch in peace. Granted there are some days when I'm too busy to even eat, but I try to make a concerted effort to sit down and eat lunch.

Like your other posters, I'd prefer to get away and have the mental break but many times my volume of work and concentration won't let me. Unfortunately, most management at my job could care less about a mental break! Most of the time I get something and come back to my desk.

These ppl give me an hr to be away from my desk to eat, chill, read a book or whatever...Why would I not take advantage of that time? I think ppl who work through their appointed lunch time are seriously way to much of overacheivers! LOL But that's just me. I work for lunch and 20min breaks! Haha I would NEVER eat lunch at my desk!

It's the way to get completely away to have your own thoughts. It keeps you refreshed and mindful you have a life beyond the 9-5. Further, it's a great time to get some writing in. :) Leave work.

The people at my job have no respect for lunch hours, they will interrupt you for various reasons. Leaving the area for lunch provides me with a small moment of peace and helps me mentally prepare for the second half of my day. I have to get away.

However I make every effort to get my butt up and OUT of that office... I need a break from the craziness of the office environment!! (-note - with being laid off, I'd welcome ANY job, sitting at any desk eating thru lunch! lol) On busy days I’ll sit at my desk at eat thru lunch.

At least that's what I did most of the time when I worked for someone else. Now, working for myself, it's not much different except that I can be at home & get what I'd like for lunch, if I'd like lunch. Fun question.....thanks for asking! :) I tend to just work through lunch….typically not even bothering to get food, just work.
