food according to what you have posted earlier.

Why not join the 21st century
I work for a company that allows flexible working.
Some people arrive in the office at 7AM and leave at 3 and others
arrive at 2PM and leave at 10, last but not least 30% just work from
home.

Fridges are actually quite economical. A typical unit
uses less than 150 kWh per annum, about the same
as an AC unit uses in 50 hours operation
