Lunch is for Wimps October 10, 2008 Professionals and executives in the U.S. spend an average of 35 minutes a day at lunch according to a survey by Office Team. That is a decrease of seven minutes from five years ago. The trend to shorter lunches is international and a recent survey in the UK found that a majority of office workers rarely, if ever, eat lunch away from their desks. A variety of causes are cited including the influence of technology, workload due to staff reductions and the cost of eating in restaurants. Psychologists worry that failing to take breaks during the work day increases the negative effects of stress.
