This may or may not happen in other parts of the industry, too. I may or may not have just said 'goodnight' to two of my staff, with my blessing. The fact that my post is a 'singleton' and I have to wait for my relief to come in doesn't mean to say that I cannot reward good effort during the day by allowing people to take their final meal break at the end of their shift, providing it doesn't compromise the operation. Why not, I say! I used to benefit occasionally, so fill yer boots if you can.
Cheers,
The Odd One
