free beer!!!!!!! my favorite brand of beer.... that is swell of you towmotor..

I hope everyone that is working through lunch AND their bosses recognize that working through lunch is not only wrong, it is stealing form your employer to give to the employer's customer, at no benefit to you.
That half hour is 16th of a normal days labor, 1/16th of what your employer (and you) should be earning income on in your work day, and equals almost 1 full day free labor every 3 weeks that your employer (and you) is not earning on your time. It does NOT benefit any forklift company to give away any of your time. Even if the work is on rental or "hire" units, the service department is not earning from the rental department what it is entitled to.
I am guilty of this also, but I try to ONLY give up my lunch 1/2 hour if I feel I have a need to make up for some misjudgment (a.k.a. a screwup) on my part.
