TBF, Outlook said Lunch, not Breakfast.
What about elevenses? Afternoon tea? Dinner? Supper?
At least it’s still not lunch.
Hobbits have more than one of every meal.
Hobbits use thunderbird for this reason
Two lunches?? It's my funeral, i guess‽
Reminds me of an old micromanaging supervisor of mine. He tried to get me to schedule out my tasks in detail so that they knew what I was doing every minute.
So I broke it down in sub-5 minute intervals all day long until the last 2 hours of the day. The last 2 hours: Filling out the calendar for tomorrow. The directive lasted a week.
I also might have set the notification default to 5 minutes before each event and picked an especially annoying notification tone.
Malicious compliance is always the way to go to please dumb managers.
Beautiful, if true.
Factually incorrect
Time is an illusion. Lunchtime doubly so.
This guy is one hoopy frood.
you can tell he really knows where his towel is.
If you make lunch long enough you'll need to take a lunch break.
We call it a trou normand
And if your lunch takes too long, you'll need a lunch break for that.
Literally 1984

Good old days, when Office was Office and not 365 Copilot AI whatever.

Actually, 8:45 to 9:15 is coffee, around here. Also sprinkle a few cigarette breaks throughout the day for my carcinophile colleagues.
Lunch 1
Lunch 1.5
how many breakfasts can you book?
The fact this is even an error tells me they either aren't in California or need to do some fuckery every time an employee works 12+ hours and would be legally entitled to a second lunch break.
"second lunch"
You're welcome
Outlook just called OP fat lmao
The hell they can't
The origin of brunch
Honey I'm on a fixed income and I can't afford to eat lunch even the once. That's why the good lord invented cigarettes.
You can't afford lunch but you have money for cigs in this economy?
I'd say God bless Phillip Morris but that would be kind of redundant.
Is it an error or a warning though?
Both
