Q

Do you prefer a long break or several short breaks?

A

By and large,I prefer several short breaks.
Mainly because I have a bit of a short attention pan, but also I think it’s much more productive to have more frequent breaks. That said, I do like to have a long lunch break!

short attention pan: I can not focus for a long time on the same thing

a bit of a: Reduce the strength
عملا، در حقیقت خیلی، زیاده، بیش از حد، کمی، نه کم

Q

What do you usually do during a break?

A

Sometimes, I’ll pop out for a quick coffee so I can stretch my legs as well, and other times, I might go and chat to some colleagues. A bunch of them usually go for a smoke outside, so I might join them, even though I am not a smoker.

pop out ~ go out
