Waitammint. Not really lunch. It's post 3PM. And it's a total of three (that could be me misreading as I thought I was me and three more) 3-3-3 - JD Feb 22, 11:25 2
- our company lets you expense $25 "dinner" if you're here more than 10 hours in one day. creative analysts would work late then go buy booze at Ralphs - hollywood big shot Feb 22, 11:29 1

$30 each, or $30 to share among 4 co-workers? 'Cause the latter only invites drama! -- nm - Mop🧹 Feb 22, 11:21 4

- How about begrudgingly walking to get coffee and then back to the office? - JD Feb 22, 11:41
- Really? I'd never thought about the fact that I was lucky to work at a place that I could make it through lunch with three co-workers. - JD Feb 22, 11:16
- It depends on the three but probably yes. -- nm - David Feb 22, 11:06 4

    - I mean, I usually pay for meals with friends anyway. -- nm - David Feb 22, 11:10 2
      - Sounds good. You give me $30 and I'll eat lunch with you. -- nm - crash davis Feb 22, 11:12 1
        
        It's a date. -- nm - David Feb 22, 11:23

  - This guy gets it 8-) Nick + Stefs until you're bored of it -- nm - JD Feb 22, 11:18
