The hospital I worked at caught a LOT of flak when they started making people clock in and out for smoke breaks in the early 2000s. The smokers complained they only took a couple breaks a day for only a few minutes. Within the first month they found out people spent over half their days on smoke breaks.

Lul that happens in my office but it's small and they either all know each other or are related. I take desk breaks and because I'm the unofficial office IT nobody says anything. Someone tried once, Im magically never available to help them with IT stuff. Word spreads around this office. Even the owner of the company an office over doesn't say anything if he sees me on my phone at my desk. I know my worth, they know my worth.
