Hi all, we've been having daily threads in !wellington@lemmy.nz but I thought I'd branch it out to !newzealand@lemmy.nz.

It doesn't have to be me making the thread, first in first served. If you are here on a day and there's no daily thread, feel free to create it!

Anyway, it's just a chance to talk about your day, what you have planned, what you have done, etc.

So how's it going?

Yay, Friday! Going to splash out and buy something hot for lunch today. It's normal to measure your work day by how long until lunch, right?

I used to work with someone who said the day goes quicker before lunch, and slower after, so he'd have lunch 2-2:30 then knock off at 4.

It sounds that wasn't you, though!

If I had to wait an extra two hours for my lunch I would probably do something unprofessional like stab a colleague (hanger is a real thing!)

I like the idea of knocking off an hour early though, especially on Fridays!

That wasn't early, in that team pretty much everyone worked 8-4 with a 30 min lunch (ok it was a bit early, as they had 37.5 hour weeks, which I miss...)
