This might be a US thing. I have worked in — what I consider — pretty unfulfilling jobs, but they usually still insist I take my vacation time and remind me to take breaks. Maybe it secretly came back in my performance review in obscure ways so I might also be an idiot.
The break reminder is just a legal obligation, they can still give you the stink eye when you say you're taking a break and brag about how long they've worked without a break.
