A joke apart, we have 2 breaks. One is tea break,not away from the computer, but just 5-10 minute relaxation. Another one is lunch break of 30 minute. But I want 1 hour... Regards Re: break?

However I will perform inhuman acts of blitzkreig-marathon coding if I am paid in amounts sufficient to convince me to do so. Or if offered ritual human sacrifice. Though I do, of course, prefer predominately monetary offerings. -Ian varies....

I may go a 12 hour day with no break, sometimes even forgetting lunch, other days, I feel like taking more breaks than work. There is not any standard. ------------------ John Andrew Holmes "It is well to remember that the entire universe, with one trifling exception, is composed of others." Re: varies.... bwilhite19-May-08 4:41 bwilhite 19-May-08 4:41  This is exactly how I operate as well. It all depends on what my goals are for the day and what's going on. Many days I'll go 12+ hours with no break. Other days I may take a whole day off...one of the benefits of working for myself. Re: varies.... Jeremy Falcon19-May-08 10:52 Jeremy Falcon 19-May-08 10:52  I'm the same way. Although, forgetting lunch I do not do. I gotta maintain my awesome physique you know.

Well! But if there is a pressing demand on a deliverable, this would go for a change too.
