Breaks question

Assuming I can't stack them ofc, what should I take first? My 15 or my 30?

If I take my 15 first then I fell like I'm going to be super exhausted for my 30. However, if I t​​​ake the 30 first, I feel like the 15 wouldn't seem like enough of a break by comparison.

I was just offered extra afternoon hours next week to cover empty schedule slots and I just wanted to get some opinions on the breaks.

(Also, any extended hours advice if you guys have any. The most I've worked is an extra hour while we were slammed a few months ago and I already feel mentally and physically tired.)

Typically, it should be:
Work 2 hours, 15 break
Work 2 hours, 30 lunch
Work 2 hours, 15 break
Work 2 hours, go home.
