I get where you are coming from. I like my noon meeting. Everyone there is on lunch break. Suits, ties, dresses, scrubs! Its so nice to see people who are working 50+ hours a week and dealing with alcoholism. I get there after they read "how it works" and have to leave a bit early. But thats ok...a girls gotta have a job!
