Never.

Except... yesterday for the first time! And the last time, I hope!

No, unless it's really, really necessary.

It's sometimes difficult to tear myself away, but lunch is one of the best opportunities to get away from the monitor.

Yes Jun 24, 2011

I nearly always eat at the computer, because I live alone, and also because I like to watch videos. At the moment I'm enjoying a superb BBC drama on YouTube. Sometimes I'll read during lunch instead of watching something on the computer.

I do take a break in the afternoon, though, to walk a mile with Leslie Sansone (exercise video)!

Not lunch, not normally but if I am alone, bored and have something interesting to watch...

The "Never" option is missing.


I think I put "never" in the list of possible answers, but what I suggested and what has been posted as a poll has been slightly changed !

If I am really in a big hurry, I prefer to take a cup of green tea in stead of a meal in front of computer.

Never Jun 24, 2011

I love the sanctity of the lunch hour (may get shortened to 45 minutes occasionally). It gives me a chance to catch up with my partner. Gives me the refreshment for the afternoon/evening push.
I cannot bear the thought of sticky hands or food anywhere near my computer, or desk, or papers on it.
Dinner does not normally consist of more than a snack - and this I often miss.
Coffee is allowed - any time.
