Multi-Manger: is someone who does something else while they eat. From the french for to eat, manger, a multi-manger is essentially a multi-tasking eater. Someone who does not focus on their food while eating, but instead, answers the phone, walks around the office and replies to emails, all while trying to choke down the sandwich that they grabbed from downstairs in their five spare minutes of the day.
I hate to say it, but these days I spend many "lunch breaks" at my desk trying to update our company's social networking status or fact checking an article. This is the American way of life, and it no doubt contributes to obesity and our nation's unhealthy relationship with food. For all you know, I am eating right now as I am writing this—thankfully I am not, I try to save the multi-mangering for the office.
