$400k salary, 25% bonus plus other incentives. Hit $650k this past year but don’t expect that again the way the economy is going. Live in a HCOL market, but don’t spend recklessly on “stuff” (our mortgage is less than my rent was in NYC 20 yrs ago, we always drive Hondas, fords, Toyotas) and we save religiously. I grew up poor (food stamps, hand me downs, guvmint cheese, etc) so we give our kids a good life and spend our money on experiencing the world.

How would you handle not getting a lunch break when you are a salaried employee treating patients for 40 hours a week? I don’t get documentation time either, but all notes are to be completed the same day. Some of us have reached out to HR and we’re told to discuss it with the regional director, but the regional director says we’d have to come in early or leave late to block out a lunch break. My commute is an hour each way, so I’d prefer not to make my day any longer. Advice?
