My lunchtime basketball gripe - Some day's we barely have enough to play 4 on 4, then you have other days (like today) where we have 14 guys that want to play (so far). There's never any in-between with these people.

You and your perfect job.

I just want to know how damn long is your lunch break that you have time to eat AND play basketball. And I would assume you guys shower before going back to work too right ? What you guys have 3 hour lunch breaks ?

I'll get you an application if you want to move to Baton Rouge

(pro tip: you don't want to)

It has a perk or two but it's far from perfect or I would be getting paid to play 2K or take a nap right now.

I usually spend about an hour and a half at the gym between dressing out, warming up, playing, then showering. Then come back to my office and eat after I cool off a bit, so close to a two hour lunch break on days I play b-ball.

I guess it pays to have an employer who is health conscious. Although, they did just cancel our fruit trays that we get for breakfast two days a week, but kept the doughnuts, so they're not too health conscious. That ground my gears as well since I only ate the fruit.

Salary and benefits?

You get fruit trays?

My employer took away free coffee and instituted a "tip" jar that must meet a certain $$ threshold before they buy any more.

Re: You know what really grinds my gears?

I usually take a ~30 minute lunch break and I don't eat fruit except red apples and bananas. I wish I had a convenient place to play basketball though.

Anyway, my gear grinder is souped up engines. I honestly don't understand how people can think that obscene amount of noise they make sounds "cool" or whatever.

Damn, coffee was breaking the bank for the company? That’s beat.

Our office complex has a break room with coffee, but it’s often burnt or reheated tasting. We’re trying to get the boss to splurge for a Keurig and mini fridge for our small team. Would be so clutch.

Be careful what you wish for, a Keurig machine tends to usually come with employees providing their own K-Cups.

A coffee pot and coffee is relatively cheap and affordable for a smaller office.

A Keurig machine and neverending K-cups. Not so much.

Re: You know what really grinds my gears?

I technically don’t get a lunch break but I’m not allowed to work more than 3 hrs without a hour break so that is used for lunch or in my case dinner.

Yeah we gotta get the reusable filter. I have one at home and it works like a charm.

I actually haven’t bought a K Cup box since I heard how bad they are for the environment.

Yep. Me too. Reusable filter all day long for the win.

Agreed. I only use K-Cups now when I get them as a gift sometimes around the holidays.

Keurig + reusable filter (~$4 at any big box store) + own coffee grounds = nice
