    I work at a printing plant in Jacksonville, Ill., and our plant recently popped up that question. I believe ours was a proposal that we work through our lunch hour, by eating at our workstations and then at the end of the day we can leave after 8 hours instead of working 9. So basically just cutting out the need to be at work another hour. Which to a lot of people at first sounds like a good deal, but when you stop and think about it, the company actually expects us to work constantly with two small 10 minute breaks. I personally think it's a load of crap because I enjoy getting that hour break in the middle of the day as relaxation time. Maybe society as a whole is just getting lazy. But when we're so used to benefits, why would we want to give them up? It's certainly not because we want the boss's stock to go up.
