Yeah, I'm going to do that.

No, I don't have an 'assigned' lunch hour.  But what I do have are meetings immediately before AND after the 12-1 timeslot.

Sounds like somebody needs to get their Sheetz morning Shmuffinz in either before 11 or after 2.

A grumpy Cal is an inefficient Cal.

MOTHERFUCKER!

One of our asshole PMs scheduled a meeting through my lunch hour, which he's done for the FOURTH TIME this month!

Meri, take note:  if you want to be a successful PM, it's a good idea to let your subject matter experts eat when they want to.

It's not all about you, pumpkin. It's not all about you.

[Caliga]

Yes it is.  I had my admin order me lunch  but I'm still mad because I wanted to go to White Castle today.  I HAD THE CRAVE.

Then do as derspeiss says and block your "me" time, silly man. You have only yourself to blame.

haha, I had a Polish PM like that. What I did was booking my lunchtime in my Calendar (which inviters could see) for 12 months in advance.

[Caliga]

Yeah, I did that earlier today.  At first I booked it as "fake meeting so Jeff stops destroying my lunch hour" but thought better of it and just booked it as "lunch".

[The Brain]

Your Jedi tricks don't work on me, I'm way too experienced as PM. You're booked in your calendar? Tough titties. Meeting's on, fuckface.

[Grey Fox]

Fuck meetings.

[The Brain]

Fuck meetings.

I think I ate half my meals while on conference calls the last couple weeks.  I just keep it on speaker & mute it when I don't have to talk.

[Caliga]

Bro, I'm going to be chewing LIKE A BOSS into the open mic.

[derspiess]

Do that and also breathe into the microphone really loud.  That's one of my favorites.

Another one is when people bring food to in-person meetings.

I got hungry and ate everything already.

Hm, I do have a little snack pack of Reese's Pieces, though.
