Strangely enough, at one of my previous jobs (which I shall nOt mentiOn nO matter hOw much yOu ask) I had to use my own unpaid lunch hours to attend the lunches and had to work out deals with the boss about letting me go to the trade shows. I would provide transportation and hotel if he would pay me for the time I was there. And I did it because I thought it was important for the company, moreso than he did, it seems. So the idea that someone might not have the liberty of an extended lunch doesn't seem that far fetched to me.

Luckily, I'm in a much better atmosphere now.
