It was recently pointed out that this is the perfect solution during the shorter winter days. Assuming you can get a 2 hour lunch break. Have to allow for getting ready, a shower and actually having lunch. Flexitime helps.
The above may be fact, or fiction, I may be serious, I may be jesting.
I am not sure. You have no chance.
Depends on the session fitting in, but a turbo session only takes the length of the session plus 2 minutes getting ready, and 5 minutes shower. Lunch at your desk.

Was pet hate of mine at a previous company. People clocking* in and having breakfast, usual day, having dinner then clocking out. They were effectively getting paid an hour a day for eating breakfast and dinner. Chapeau to them for getting away with it, but...
*Yes, actual clocks. Recently, and at a blue chip company. You were paid by the minute.

Yep spot on, I take a 2 hour lunch normally, gives me time to get changed, carry out a 75 or 90 minute session, and then hit the shower, and eat at my desk afterwards.

I'm struggling especially this year to cycle earlier in the day and get the benefits of a heightened metabolic rate for the rest of the day, so often it's a reluctant change into kit in a semi-zombied state sometime 1600-1900.

My struggle with riding later, is that I tend to find with the exercise, and shower etc, I then sometimes struggle to get to sleep - maybe due to the endolphins racing around?

Early morning is best if possible. There’s less traffic about, and ( if you’re into marginal gains) the cooler air is better to train in ( until it goes sub zero ).
I don't understand what the other option is - should they not eat during the day or do most people clock out twice a day to go and eat outside the building?

Have breakfast before going to work, and dinner when you get home? Like most people. You were automatically docked 1/2 hour for lunch.

No. They were having all 3 meals while being paid. And this was only an 8 hour shift, normal hours, so only 6-1/2 hours remaining. Subtract coffee and smoke breaks on top...

I've always found I'm better in the evenings training, on a morning I'm always a mess, feel total censored full of heartburn. On a night around 8pm is where I have most power.
In my student years I found an 18 miler around 2am in Manchester was actually the sweetspot for me.

Or if you want to justify it, pretend it's like a smoke break.

I find the only time I can run is first thing.
Left it until the afternoon yesterday, half a mile, gave up, no enthusiasm. Today out at 8 am, five miles no problem.
Don't know if it is a psychological thing or what?
Been here 35 years now, absolutely no enthusiasm to move, I'll be here until they cart me off to cemetery or care home!
