development team phenomenon: first and second lunches

“its time for my first lunch ill brb” - max

despite the too-skinny/malnourished stereotypes, IT males put down more food than a corner dorm full of bro-dudes.

they have ultra-fast metabolisms to help them function during the day after engaging in epic battles the night before. this rapid mana depletion MUST be closely monitored or the IT guy’s body will go into a defensive state and they will subconsciously migrate to the server room to hibernate. some brave warriors will even attempt the rare third lunch, reserved only for days of greater coding or fixing.

this is totally legitimate, scientific data— backed by evidence i have gathered while working with this fascinating species for the last couple of years.

but personally, i’m a first dinnner, second dinner kind of girl :D
