Lunch hour - what do you do?

Grab food in the RCSI canteen or in O'Briens and chill out in the park, so perfect in summer! Unless it's raining which ruins everything. Sometimes I go home like the OP, just to get away.

Sometimes go to the canteen, or if I wanna be alone I'll go somewhere else and read a book.

I usually have stuff to do on lunch , pay bills , fill in forms for various things , pick up stuff so generally if I dont have something to do Ill have a look around the shops grab a roll and eat that at my desk when lunch is kind of over or just about over.

I couldnt stay in work during my lunch , come 1 I need a break and a bit of air so Im off.

used to go to the canteen for about a year and a half with everyone.. seen many new people come and go to the table, once i got my car i started driving home for lunch (i only live down the road) - mainly because i wanted to drive the new car at the time but even now i still leave the building for lunch, the odd time that i do go to the canteen it just does my head in, too noisy and crap food etc

rather have some quiet time alone. nobody else really leaves the building on a daily basis but i dont mind being the odd one out!

Used to go for a walk with the other people in the office when I worked last summer. Canteen food was rubbish, so used to get a wrap in Insomnia, walk down to the pier and stare at the shimmering water wishing I didn't have to go back to work!

Does nobody eat out for lunch? I usually meet up with some of my cronies and go on the skive for an hour or three.

the only days that i eat out for lunch is when the suppliers / management are paying. at least once every two weeks which is nice.

Either out to one of the local pubs that do food, down to the shop to pick up a sandwich and back to the office 'canteen', go for a swim or quite increasinly this month home for a cheap lunch and to do some laundry or whatever.

at the moment, check email to see if any job updates, then have a wander around the shops to see if can see anything nice, have a natter, and basically just get out of work for a bit.
