Memo: not taking a proper lunch break is officially cooked (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Somewhere along the way, the lunch break went the way of the DVD player and a tradie who actually turns up "between 9 and 11" on the dot, mostly mythical. We used to take lunch like civilised people. You'd leave the building, get a bit of sun, smash a sandwich, sit on a bench and pretend you weren't thinking about emails.

I would like to propose a modern working-world version of it: Schrodinger's job. That is the strange period after you have officially landed a job, but before you have actually started it. You have signed the paperwork. You have told your family. You may have even updated LinkedIn with a level of confidence normally reserved for people receiving knighthoods.
