Federal law in the US requires a half hour unpaid lunch break for full time employees. Why does this translate sometimes into a forced hour long unpaid lunch break? I eat in about 10 minutes and I'd like to spend more time with my family. Do employers just plan for chatty lazy assholes to need an hour for lunch, and make the rest of us pay for it?

Pro tip, drink a beer or take a shot or two before your interview, always calms my nerves and helps.
