- janosdebugs 3y agoIf you could cook the same or better food at home for 10-15$ (which was my experience) them yes, employers are the reason for the extra spend.
- baggy_trough 3y agoYou have the choice to bring lunch to work, so no, employers aren't the reason.
- janosdebugs 3y agoAs far as quality if life is concerned, microwaved food doesn't quite have the same appeal for many.
- SargeDebian 3y agoSandwiches exist. Of course, everyone is free to choose what they eat but the notion that there's no alternative to spending over $30 on food every working day sounds absurd to me.
- janosdebugs 3y agoThere's always an alternative. One can also live under the bridge as a measure of saving rent (obviously exaggerating), but it's not a choice most people would make. The reason why we work is so we can support the lifestyle we want, not the bare minimum to survive.
- Ancalagon 3y agoYou're missing the point - the time spent commuting is the real time-value lost here.
