This is why I called you: at the moment, we have an official lunch break lasting one hour. As from the first of next month, I want to reduce the lunch break to 30 minutes only and bring the afternoon quitting time forward by half an hour. No doubt the staff will appreciate the opportunity to get home earlier. Will you please inform everyone concerned? Thanks for your time.” Mr Mokoena begins to examine some papers on his desk and waves her hand to indicate that she has nothing further to tell the supervisor. The supervisor, in turn, opens his mouth as if starting to say something, but thinks better of it. All he utters is a weak, “Okay, Mrs Mokoena”, before exiting. 1.
