I feel like you're describing this as a negative when it sounds like a huge positive to me.
- mahyarm 11y agoTypical SV let's go for lunch: 1. get car / gather people in 5m 2. wait in traffic for 15m 3. look for parking for 10m 4. wait in restaurant & eat for 1hr or get sandwich and eat in 30m. 5. get back to car in 5m 6. wait in traffic for another 15m And 1.5-2 hrs later you're back at work. Nice to do for special occasions, not so good every day. If SV companies didn't provide lunch by default, the entire south bay would be in gridlock during lunch time. If you're close to restaurants then this is far more practical since you just need to walk for 10m. But if your office parks at least a 15m drive from the restaurants, it isn't. What I do is go out for lunch with coworkers at the company cafe.
