This FML is from back in 2015 but it's good stuff
Genova, Italy
Grind away
Today, I got stuck in the elevator at work. When I was finally let out, my boss decided I shouldn't get a lunch break, because I'd already had over an hour off work while in the elevator. I had to starve through 5 more hours of work. FML

Only if the OP is a minor. I doubt that is the case though...

I don't think it is :| Denied a paid lunch because you were stuck in an elevator? Might be on the line.

Not all companies offer paid lunches though. My last job didnt. I don't think it's legal to be denied a lunch break, but the laws may be different there.

Really depends on their minimum hour limit (some have 4 some 5-6) and if they give you a paid break or not. I've never had a job that allows more than a 10 minute paid break

Where I live, you aren't entitled to any kind of break unless you work for MORE than six hours.

In Australia you're entitled to a break after five hours at maximum, in some industries such as retail you're entitled to a break at four hours. Not sure what the situation is like in Italy.

That's ridiculous! If he has a supervisor, report him! Otherwise quit because that job sounds like hell

Because everyone is in a position to up and quit their job.

That's illegal almost everywhere, unless you're in a sweatshop in a country where people don't have rights. Report his ass and get him fired
