Now that's a crock of BS! I believe the US General Services Admin. (per diem rates are out for 2014) now sets per diem rates domestically and the State Department does internationally. This from:
Publication 1542, Per Diem Rates
Effective for 2012 and later, the IRS will no longer be updating Publication 1542. Instead, current per diem rates may be found on the Per Diem Rates page at the U.S. General Services Administration (GSA) website.

Thus the reason I promptly told them to cancel my order and went with Pro Diem.....

His eyes show perfectly that first moment when the backdoor no longer says Authentication Access Required and instead a PDF pops up. That face must be what I look like.
I can't imagine what my eyes look like when it works for my December bid award.

and juice? I will starve to death.
I know. Just like "why should we hire pilots?"
45 minute break on a multi leg, over 8hr flying day is not enough time to stand in line, purchase and inhale one's food.
I dont want to **** off the passengers and FAs by being late because I am hungry. Plus doing this will make a name for yourself at the CPO office. I hate walking on to a loaded airplane, late, with a bag of fast food (real professional). By the time you get to eat your food it is cold, plus you have taken a nice delay thus ****ing off the FAs/CO/PAX. With the 117 rules, you will be pushing it also.TEN

When I was a fairly senior FO, flew YYR to DTW, turn was shortened due to MX, so just sucked it up and then flew to SLC. Still had to go to MSP, so I asked the Captain ( Long sleeve guy if you know what I am saying) if he wanted anything to eat as we were deplaning in SLC.
"You are gonna cut it pretty close aren't you?"
"I wasn't asking permission"
Fairly quiet flight home (left on time BTW). Told myself I would never be that guy.

Why is Delta setting us up for failure? I want my flights to be on time. I am a professional I dont want to **** off the passengers and FAs by being late because I am hungry.

Certainly, if we're concerned about flight safety and projecting a professional image, the company can agree to a couple of crew meals (what, maybe $10 for two pilots?) and an additional five or ten minute turn time?
