ARGG!

I frickin hate my bosses.

They make me go on break when I JUST came back from lunch (like today, I went to lunch @ 10:30, came back at 11:00 and was told to go back on break at 12:15).

As a dieting bodybuilder I must eat meals every three hours. I wake up at 3:45 AM, cook and eat, then eat again at 7:15AM, 10:30AM, and 2PM.

Any earlier and it's just wasted protein (body can only digest about 30 grams of protein in one setting) and calories since you're still full from the previous meal.

So today what I ended up doing is sneaking out for a "bathroom break" and just scarfing down my meal.

If I get busted doing that, I could be fired (still on my 90 day probation thing).

So I'm wondering if any of you know a "loophole" that makes it so bosses can't tell you when to take your break/lunch (as long as you don't go past the 5 hour mark).

I work with foods so I'm not exactly able to bring my meals with me and scarf 'em quickly....

Any suggestions?
