Yeah it's like that here at the moment.
We're desperately short-staffed and support over a thousand people. Not fun.

I hate it when these cunts walk up to your desk then, see you eating your sandwich and then say something along the lines of

"I'm sorry, I know you're on your lunch break, but it's really important. The printer's broken/I can't make the font in Word italic/can't make these numbers in Excel add up/something else that can blatantly wait for half an hour".

I've brought one of them on myself
Everytime anyone changed the toners in our colour printer, they break it. It's got to a point now where I tell them to not touch it, and simply get me. More than once, this has corresponded with my lunch hour.

The number of times I've been called back from lunch is fucking ridiculous.

Supposedly, a legal requirement.
