What if instead of advocating against the 30 minute break you just push back harder for it to be paid?
"But what about the drop in productivity?" I guarantee people are already burning 30 minutes of potential productivity throughout an 8 hour shift anyway
If I am -REQUIRED- to take a 30 minute unpaid break I would lose my shit. That's just 30 minutes added to my day. Not an 8 hour day. 8.5 HOURS.
