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

Report him to hr! Some people really shouldn't be given power...

make sure he's the next to be stuck in the elevator next time, preferably a whole night

Time to contact HR, OP. That's likely not legal.

Is that even ******* legal? I think in the US it is depending on how long you work.

@17 If he was already working long enough to get a lunch break in the first place I would say it isn't.

Your boss seems like a complete asshole. Is there anyone you can report him to? If it's a small business there probably isn't an HR but try to use your resources. I'm pretty sure what he did is illegal. If he's like this on a regular basis, I'd consider finding a new job

Please report him or something! It's very illegal almost everywhere!

Why do people think these things are ok or they don't have rights? Take your damn break and if he try's to fire you can call the labor board on him and/or you are better than that job or that boss anyways

If hes in, i think its called, a right to work? State, he can be fired over it.

I would have told him, "Eat this!" And flip him off and walk out

You gotta do something about this. I don't even think that's legal. You gotta show 'em you're not just another slave to the labour, dude. **** that. He can't starve you 'cause his logic his flawed.
