If you negotiate a fair salary with your boss, and then every day they bring you lunch, is that not free?

What I'm trying to say is I used to manage a store for someone. The owner was an elderly woman who I knew. She rarely came in during the day, just at night to do paperwork. The pay was straight salary and I would be there all day except for an occasional relief. Since I was there all day she would bring me lunch or it would be in the refrigerator. When people say there is no such thing as a free lunch I have to disagree because I got one everyday. Is this not correct??

No, because after she brought you lunch, she expected you to put stones to her later that night

Did the lunch cost her money? Under this assumption then food stamps would also be considered a free lunch.

by not taking a lunch break you saved her $, so the lunch she gave you made her $

It was income for you. You should be adding the value of the lunch to your tax bill every year.

MGM (casinos) caters to their employees, as long as they're at work they get free meals.

In the 50's and 60's the owner provided the company with a nice stock of booze for their offices.

You spent all day managing a store and didn't do any actual work?

I need to find a job like that
