Pro tip: the 3pm office coffee run is not about coffee
I started watching the pack of us that walks to the shop at 3pm every day. Same 6 people, same order, but nobody actually drinks it fast. We stand in the parking lot for 15 minutes and complain about tickets. Turns out that walk is the only real break in a 9 hour shift, and the coffee is just the excuse to leave the desk. My manager asked why output went up when I stopped skipping the walk. Has anyone else noticed their best ideas show up away from the screen, not at it?
