Break time


No, it's not some exotic island patio/cafe.

Breaks are an important part of my day. They ensure I'm always late and that adds to my sense of importance or demonstrates the high demand for my skills. Of course I tell clients I'm in a meeting or on an emergency call or got held up in negotiations or something like that. You'd be surprised how well it works if you don't push too far.
Special shout out to Steve, who I've known 24 or 25 years. He and George are with me at Mr. Greeks for lunch. Recently had a discussion with Steve and concluded that if I didn't go out for lunch or dinner with him I'd almost never go out. That's because the rest of you %^$&ers work too much or have to go home to other responsibilities or something lame like that. We usually hook up several times a week and occasionally drive to some small town for lunch, that's pretty interesting.

Only complaint is that there are no good cafes in Scarborough or Markham. Any suggestions?
