&gt;Ellison provides on-site amenities like daycare to encourage employees to stay in the office<p>&gt;&quot;I don&#x27;t want them walking down the road for a cup of coffee; we figured out a few years ago how much that costs,&quot; Ellison explained. &quot;Wandering out around lunchtime, we&#x27;ve got a restaurant in there [the office], we&#x27;ve also got a gym, and we&#x27;ve got other facilities that keep them glued in there,&quot; he added.

If your place of work is regulating what you do on your lunch break it should be paid. If you are not paying me for my 30 minute lunch break I should be allowed to do whatever I need to as long as I am back at my work station when it is time to get back to work.

Does this person come to the office 5 days a week? That is not mentioned in the article.

I thought &quot;company towns&quot; were a relic of the 19th century?
