At work, we all eat lunch at staggered times, anywhere from 11:30am-1pm, depending on the workload of the day.
Lunch is half hour, and the clock starts as soon as you notify Chef.
“Chef, je peux prend déjeuner?” I speak to my Japanese pastry chef in French..but that’s another post.
“Bon appetit!”
I look down at my phone: 12:15.
The half hour starts now.
