“Lied about taking breaks at work”

I deceived my supervisors to avoid eating during breaks due to financial struggles, now I feel ashamed and taken advantage of.

What I wish I knew
"Being honest about my situation could have led to support or alternative solutions"
If I could tell you one thing
"Be honest about your struggles and ask for help instead of resorting to deception"
