Lunch Meetings

As a student, meetings and gatherings over lunch used to be such a great idea: You didn't have to wake up early... you avoided the press of the crowd as the time is of your choice...you're not bound by location (more accurately time to travel due to the "lunch hour" time limit)

However now that most of us are working, lunch is a BAD time to catch up. You leave office late.... Something crops up... Colleague takes emergency leave and you have to cover...Client calls to make last minute arrangements... Suppliers inform you of backed up orders... Deliveries don't make it in time... You get the picture/idea

Thank goodness Shumei was caught up with work as well today when I called to cancel on our lunch. A staff had taken ill & I had to cover her duties for her. It has been way too long since we caught up soon, let's hope dinner next week really happens!
