For the first time in I can't remember how long I've eaten lunch at my desk today and I cannot believe it's only just 3pm!
Before I started here, I would take my home-made packed lunch out to a local park and read. But we have free meals in our staff restaurant as part of the salary package and I've put on about 7lbs in 4 months. Now, this might or might not be down to lunches as I always have a very healthy option - salads - but I'm going back to my usual routine and trying the home-mades again, except not going out (I have a door I can shut to keep the world away from my desk while lunching).
It's made the day really long but only 1&1/2 hours to go 'til Quittin' Time... I might have to revise my plan to include getting out of the office even if only for 10 minutes or so.
I'll get up from the desk several times during the day whether it's just to check on post or visit the loo, and sometimes that will turn into a 3 - 5 minute natter ...
And will go online a couple of times a day if it's quiet to check DD and my private email account.
Other than that, there's no official tea or coffee break though the gals upstairs break morning and afternoon and gather in the "fax room" for a hot drink, for maybe 15 minutes or so. I hate standing around with a hot drink... now, if it was a glass of wine
that would be a completely different story.
