I don’t know when I stopped making lunch dates and substituted them with meeting people for coffee. Time lines post-pandemic all seem to blur. But there is no question that at a certain point I stopped asking people if they wanted to have lunch and replaced it with “You want to meet for a coffee?”
I am not alone. I did a survey on my scantily used Instagram page and asked people, “Has meeting for coffee replaced meeting for lunch much of the time?” One hundred percent responded, “Yes.”
