I was able save money for four days on lunch. The client from the US came to support the launching of the acquired center. The center was acquired months ago but the full transition to the company I am supporting was on October 9th.
It was like the launch of Asia Pacific (Asia and Australia regions) and the Europe. It is legal to eat on our workstations.
Because we need to close hundreds of emails and requests, they allowed us to stay and eat.
Monday - Shakey's pizza
Tuesday - McDonald's 1pc chicken with fries
Wednesday - Mc Cheeseburger with fries
Thursday - SubWay
Friday - Shakey's Bunch of Lunch
It is my day off on Friday (PST). In Philippine time, it is Saturday. So, I got all the meals except Shakey's.
Did I really save?

@hereandthere yes, overnight if required to work overtime we had our rooms not cubicles. Not a call center. I handled billing/invoicing.

I think it is more than $2 per meal. I don't eat or buy at Subway to cut off expenses.
