thats actually a fucking badass lunch that I might use. I'm getting extremely sick of deli meat.

Also i feel like if i made like 3 PBJ sammies i could leave them in the fridge for days adn they'd be "fine"

Fucking suburban office has no good dinner options nearby; if i work late i need sustenance

The opportunity cost of going grocery shopping? Considering you post on xo, unless you're billing around the clock, you're likely jerking off, posting or playing Starcraft in your free time. Not a lot of opportunity lost there

Of course it's acceptable.

Pros:

- Makes you look like a hard worker if you're at your desk.

- When the weather is crappy, better to spend a few extra minutes browsing the web than running out for a bite to eat (though of course, you can always use Seamless).

- You're much more likely to end up a pasty, overweigh, miserable biglaw drone if you order out rather than packing a healthier home lunch.

Personally, I try to mix it up. Bring leftovers/lunch from home some days, order out others.

who doesn't eat at their desk, even when you don't bring lunch you bring it back

nobody is that busy, and if you are you're getting seamless

not necessarily, you can do fine if you're just not an ass about it

I eat a lot of salads and soups from the places near my office, it isn't much more expensive than packing a lunch and it isn't terrible for you, plus when you're having a shit day you can just cop a burrito or burger instead of your soggy pb&j

Real lawyers (like me) don't pause for lunch. Lunch is for closers. The credited response is to power through and then just go heavy for dinner. Plus that way you don't get the post-lunch dip in your energy. LAW: BILL IT, LOVE IT, BE IT.
