If he is over 18, apparently they do not have to allow any breaks.  \n\nFrom Wisconsin - employment - labor law as stated on http://www.dwd.state.wi.us/er/labor_standards_bureau/breaks_and_meals.htm\n\n"Wisconsin law does not require that employers provide brief rest periods, coffee breaks or meal periods for adult employees, although the Department recommends, in Chapter DWD 274.02(2) of the Wisconsin Administrative Code, that employers do so."\n\n"Employers are encouraged, but not required, to provide breaks of at least 30 minutes in duration at times reasonably close to the usual meal period.  Such matters are to be determined directly between the employer and the employee."\n\n"Employers must pay employees for "on duty" meal periods. An "on duty" meal period is one where the worker is not provided at least 30 consecutive minutes free from work, or where the worker is not free to leave the employer’s premises. Employers may not deduct from a worker's wages for any time off of less than 30 consecutive minutes."

Some of the answers here are truly amazing. My answer is slightly different:\n\n1. The 13th Amendment of the Constitution prohibits involuntary servitude. This means that no one can force you to work for anyone else except after being convicted of a crime. So, ultimately, no matter what sort of contract you may have entered into with an employer -- whether written or oral, you cannot be "forced" to work for that employer for even one moment longer than you wish.\n\nOf course the alternative is that you may be terminated from your employment, but that is the price you pay for not being enslaved -- you are free to leave whenever you wish.\n\n2. Generally, employment contracts that are not specifically written out and agreed to, are in constant flux. That is, if you take lunch today at noon, and your employer retains you upon your return, then your employer has impliedly consented to your taking lunch at noon. If you choose 1PM tomorrow, and your employer continues to retain you, then the employer has impliedly consented to 1PM as being a reasonable lunch.\n\nIf, however, your employer tells you that you can't take lunch at any time other than noon, and you continue to work for the employer, then you have impliedly agreed to only take your lunch at noon.\n\nIf you think about the above example with respect to your question you should see that by your working overtime, you agree to work overtime, and by your refusing to work overtime, if your employer continues to pay you afterwards, then your employer has consented to your not working overtime.\n\nThe bad news, is that the next time your employer asks you to work overtime, if you refuse, and the employer terminates you, then, just as above, you have attempted to counter your employer's most recent offer of employment, and your employer can terminate you for the refusal.\n\nSo, the short version is "no," your employer cannot terminate you for refusing to work overtime, IF the employer continues to retain your services after your refusal. However, if you refuse to work overtime, and the employer terminates you immediately, then your employer can terminate you.\n\nThis all may seem very strange, but it's exactly how a court would analyze the relationship between you and your employer. \n\nGood luck.

Not a good call!  She's your supervisor and could get canned if she fools around with you.  Shitting where you eat is never a good idea.  \n\nIf you feel the need to have an office hook-up, bang one your co-workers.

It depends on if you're exempt or non-exempt. (If you're paid by the hour you're probably non-exempt.)  It does vary by state -- \n\nHere's OK law:  \n\n2. Are breaks and lunch periods mandatory? \nNeither federal nor state law require employers to provide breaks to employees age 16 or older.  Mandatory \nbreak laws only apply to children under the age of 16. Breaks and lunch periods are considered benefits and \nremain at the discretion of the employer.

Yeah, I am.  Sounds like you might be a little more hungry than me though.  I am thinking of killing and cooking my boss for lunch.  Just kidding

The hours you state are 10-11 hrs per day, not including your lunch break.  \n\nYou're definitely working more than 40 hrs per week.  So if you're not getting paid overtime, you're definitely due a salary increase.\n\nPut your ducks in a row and list your contributions, both over the entire time you've worked there and since the personnel cuts.  Emphasize everything in positive words - stay aware from looking like you're complaining about management decisions made by your boss.  \n\nWhat are your costs related to the job?  Any additional costs since you stay so long each day?  \n\nStay professional and keep things relevant to a pay raise (remember you're not asking for the company to hire more help, you want that money to go to you... )\n\nGood luck...

This is probably a per company policy.  Ask the person who you submit the reports to about the company policy for meals.  For a large company, they might give you a bigger budget with receipts and good reason as long as your boss signs off on it.

Restaurant Gift Cards .  I'm a teacher and I really like when I get them.  $10-15 pays for a great lunch during post-planning or during the summer.

NO!  You have to be payed for what you work. I had a previous employer that did the same to me and I had to go all the way up the chain and eventually was paid for 60 days of docked lunches I never took!

Few states require lunch or rest breaks, if any.  I know that for most employees over the age of 18 in even more politically liberal states like New Jersey do not require rest breaks.  Of course, many states regulate such for minors, but few for workers over the age of 18.\n\nI've included a link to a Department of Labor chart that gives requirements for each state on meal breaks.  It's a pretty short list: California, Colorado, Connecticut, Delaware, Illinois, Kentucky, Maine, Massachusetts, Minnesota, Nebraska, Nevada, New Hampshire, New York, North Dakota, Oregon, Rhode Island, Tennessee, Washington, and West Virginia.\n\nFor rest breaks, the list shrinks to California, Colorad, Kentucky, Minnesota, Nevada, Oregon, and Washington.\n\nPerhaps few regulate is because most employers voluntarily give rest breaks to employees to make work more bearable.  Perhaps few regulate because unions, often providing the strongest labor law components in states, don't really care if non-unionized labor is forced to receive breaks, but really works hard to ensure that its own members are protected through contract agreements and bargaining.  Regardless, I hope this information helps.
