You can't take an hour off for work?? What kind of slave labor camp are you working for Tom?? You can't let those bastards run your life. You are entitled by law to take time for lunch. I'm sure the whole week, you've probably been skipping out on meals or eating quickly at your desk while doing work. Have a decent meal and a few laughs with us. You deserve it. 
Not entitled by law. My job function is exempt from the requirements of the Fair Labor Standards Act. The only thing they are limited to is making me work more than 168 hours in a week.

Yea, I had a lot of n00bs, and ESL in my classes, but even some of the ones who were working were not the brightest bulbs. They do have an executive program at my school as well for people who are working and have experience.

Secondly, they aren't exempt. My position is exempt. See: TITLE 29 CHAPTER 8 of the United States Code - FAIR LABOR STANDARDS.
"this title shall not apply with respect to . . . any employee employed in a bona fide executive, administrative, or professional capacity . . . "

I want to go back to my school and get one. They have an MBA in the Management of Technology and since i got my MS there I would need maybe 20 credits to get one. But I won't pay on my own. I need to find a job with an employer who will pay. They paid for me to finish my BS and MS at my curent place. But things are so bad here I did not want to bother pushing them to pay for the MBA, they probably would have said no anyway and that would have pissed me off more.
The current jobs I am getting calls on are mostly for contracting jobs and most of them at AT&T. AT&T is not hiring full time employees right now, but after the contract they can convert me. Then they have a tuition assistance program. So I will just have to wait and see.
I got 5 calls yesterday from recruiters and one this morning for another AT&T job. I told my existing recruiter that had already submitted me for a job at AT&T that I wanted status today. He stated early in the week that my resume was reviews and received a favorable reply and that I should be hearing about an interview today.

Have you taken AIS in the masters yet?? I'm looking at what my school offers if AIS is similar to the class I'm taking now I may just take it in grad course. So far these are six of the 12 classes I'm mostly likely taking:
Capital markets
International trade and Investments
SEC and Fiancial Markets
Business Taxation (hoping it is similar to the class I'm taking now)
Acquistion and Divestment
AIS (hopefully similar too)
