I’ve had people ask me why I always bring my lunch. I tell them it’s because I’m lazy. I don’t have the time nor the inclination to leave work, get in my car, give up my (maybe) decent parking spot, fight traffic and other crazy people out looking for food, spend too much $$$ on food of questionable quality, fight more traffic, hope to find another decent parking spot, race back to my office, all to keep from spending 10 minutes each morning packing a lunch and a few extra minutes in the grocery store, picking up lunch stuff. Nope, I’m much too lazy to go through that hassle every day.

BINGO...and absolutely spot on!!

I'm the same way. I can pack my lunch in a few minutes at home and don't have to fight traffic. I get enough of that during my commutes. Since we are on a four day / 10 hour week, we only have 30 minutes for lunch.

There is a cafeteria about 1/2 mile from us, but it is too crowded at noon.I also have a small fridge in my office and keep mustard and mayonnaise, some sliced lunch meat, cheese slices and loaf of bread at work if I want sandwiches.
