In our company the no1's are usually very good, and we nearly always get a meal break, on at least one sector if not both on longer flights, even if it means dropping a service in order to achieve this. I usually lose my appetite though when i remember that i am eating two feet away from a rubbish dump (gash bag) and three feet away from a public toilet. Call me cynical but do you think this would be tolerated in a staff canteen on the ground?
