My last company had a good set up. They'd invite a local caterer to set up on our site with the proviso that all management staff get 50% off full price for food.
You could get some very decent meals for £3-£4.
I wouldn't usually sit near the builders, though. I once saw some big Eastern European bloke eating a tomato as if it was an apple.
The thing is, if that you have your lunch at your desk, you carry on working and that then becomes the established norm and then when someone does actually go out for lunch, it’s seen as a black mark against them.
I once had a boss that insisted that everyone had to take a proper lunch break and leave their desks.
He was spot on with his reasoning, that people came back refreshed and more able to focus.
I used to love my forty winks in the car snooze.
It's how it's supposed to be eaten.
We had that at Amazon - local caterers and you get very decent meals for next to nothing, but being in a canteen full of a jillion people means you likely get nothing even if you're like 3 min late/further away when break hits.

We had to enforce break times per contractor for this reason. Our canteen held about 500, but at its peak the site had about 2,200 people on it.

I think I'll respond to any Happy New Year bollocks with: "You've already wished me it nob-head".
Get them confused right from the get-go.
Colleagues trying to encourage 'team lunch breaks'.
I've got sod all in common with most of them and certainly don't share a sense of humour. It's painful, but I feel compelled to attend and make nice every now and then.
Tempted to start taking in really smelly food or eating it in a gross manner so they stop inviting me.

Pick your nose and eat it once and they'll never ask you again. Small price to pay for freedom really.

There is a small group of us that go to a Thai restaurant once a week, although it's people we want to go with and it's not forced
It's not a bad idea. Was also thinking of eating curry and naan very sloppily then very noisily sucking residue off my fingers.
Yeah, I wouldn't call ours forced, but it's encouraged. They're all fine as colleagues but I struggle with them socially. But I don't mind that. I really had colleagues in the past who make great pub buddies but I wouldn't trust to eff the simplest task up. Just be a work colleague, stop trying to be my mate ffs.

Me and my mate went for a kebab one dinnertime, both hungover. His missus walked past and saw us in the kebab shop, she'd made him a healthy packed lunch. Kept asking him how "Kebabgate's" going because she was absolutely raging. Hilarious.
