I like to get lunch as late as possible every day so that when I return, my work day is almost over.

Unfortunately, lunch is one of the first things I'm thinking about when I get into work, so it's hard to hold off.

I normally go at around 11:30AM. Kinda reminds me of elementary school recess.

I start work at 6:00AM, so I typically get lunch around 11:00 or 11:30, then leave work around 4:00ish on a good day. I think my body is trained now as I almost always start to get hungry around 11:00 every single day.

when i was working, it was about 1:00 every day. occasionally it would be between 12 and 1.

When I'm off, i eat when i'm hungry. that can range from 11:00 to 2:00, depending on when i wake up and if i eat breakfast.

i was the same way for a long time. then i had to start taking kids to school every day, so my hours changed. now i get to work about 830, but if i dont eat before noon i wont at all. its just too late to eat and still be hungry at dinner time for me.

I prefer to have lunch at 12:30-1:00, but everyone else in my group gets here crazy early and ends up eating around 11:30. As such, I end up having lunch at that time fairly often.

I don't eat breakfast so I always go at 11, any later and my stomach really aches.

I generally grab my lunch out of the fridge around 11:30 and eat at my desk. If I don't take an actual "lunch break" I can leave earlier.

I get lunch when I want lunch, but usually I try to eat 11-12pm. I got used to that from school and it allows me 12-1pm to catch up from the morning while everyone else is out of the office.

I usually eat lunch at my desk whenever I'm hungry. Once I week I grab something out, at that's usually at 11:45a to beat the lunch rush.

Yeah, I've been going to get lunch at 11:30 for eight years or longer...

So which poll option is for me, if my lunch is 11:30 - 12:30?

Usually leave at around 11:45, or 11:30 if the boss isn't at her desk.

I can go whenever I want but usually work through lunch while eating something at my desk around noon-ish.

If is do go out then it's almost never before 1pm.

What about

"I dont have a set schedule when I eat my meals because I don't know when I'll be near a restaurant and hate bringing my lunch to work"
