The only thing that will happen if not refrigerated is it will start weeping, loosing it's natural juice

If it a good fresh tomato , it will last. Is OK.
You could also take it whole and cut it when u eat. Or just bite into it.

You could carry the tomato whole and cut it at work.

it takes a lot long than six hours for fruit to go rotten.
I really wouldn't worry :)
however if you want to scare yourself go read http://fruitandvegetablesafety.tamu.edu/Consumers/Tomatoes.pdf
which seems a little bit over zealous to me. I mean, how would we manage packed lunches??

tomatoes can keep O.K. for a day -keep it relativly cool
tomato sauce is rather durable(safe)the acidity
inhibits spoiling a bit
don't try this with an avocado
allways eat fresh to live healthy

if it,s fresh at the time you cut it ,it should be good to go.actually it would be good for a couple days as long as it,s stored right.

It will be fine -- but don't leave it in a hot spot.
