A "Showerthought" is a simple term used to describe the thoughts that pop into your head while you're doing everyday things like taking a shower, driving, or just daydreaming. A showerthought should offer a unique perspective on an ordinary part of life.
Rules
- All posts must be showerthoughts
- The entire showerthought must be in the title
- Avoid politics
- 3.1) NEW RULE as of 5 Nov 2024, trying it out
- 3.2) Political posts often end up being circle jerks (not offering unique perspective) or enflaming (too much work for mods).
- 3.3) Try c/politicaldiscussion, volunteer as a mod here, or start your own community.
- Posts must be original/unique
- Adhere to Lemmy's Code of Conduct

Only exceptionally bad jobs (or exceptionally well paid jobs) are not 9to5 ime.
9-5 doesn't include unpaid lunch break. Do you eat at your desk while working?
Paid lunch break
What're you, European or something?
Sometimes. My work is pretty variable. Some days I have to search for things to do. Others I have lots with short due dates. On busy days I eat at my desk. On really busy days I don't eat. It evens out in the end because I can leave early on slow days to make up the time.
Most jobs include a 30-60 minute paid lunch break, making 9-5 completely plausible.
What? Where do you live? I’ve only ever had one job with a paid lunch break and I’ve worked a lot of jobs
