Break time etiquette

As you are probably aware, the word work isn’t always associated with the words care-free or relaxing. Whether you’re sitting in front of a computer or strategizing with coworkers, your brain is probably running a mile a minute. Wondering if you sent that email. Making mental notes to check your voicemail. Hoping you remembered to turn off your coffee pot at home. It’s just something we’ve become accustomed to in our ever-growing, fast-paced world. However, even the most hardworking person needs to take breaks every now and then. Get out of the office and move around a little!

This is when you should take advantage of our breakroom!

Did you know that even a 15-minute break has amazing benefits? It’ll help your brain slow down, relax and recharge, which in turn can help increase productivity. Taking this time in the breakroom can also give you a chance to socialize with someone new!
We encourage everyone to use and enjoy the breakroom. Below are some guidelines to make sure everyone is utilizing and enjoying the communal breakroom at AMG Corporate Offices and Creve Coeur Workspace!
   
​  BREAKROOM ETIQUETTE

• Food and beverages are not communal unless specifically marked as something that is available for everyone. Please be respectful of others and only eat or drink items that you bring in.
• Please do not leave dirty dishes in the sink. Keep in mind that everyone uses the sink to wash dishes, and their hands (hopefully), and dishes or cups left behind start to smell and can be in the way.
• Please make sure to clean up all spills. Remember that you’re a strong, independent person that can wipe up after yourself!
• If you notice that there are no more paper towels or other supplies (creamer, cups, etc.) please notify the front desk or management, as they are not psychic (although that would be pretty cool if they were).
• Please make sure if you’re storing anything in the fridge that you keep an eye on it. No one wants to see rotten food or smell spoiled milk. Yuck!

Remember that this is a shared space that services over 100+businesses, so please be respectful of others! If you have any questions or concerns please let us know!
