At Twitter's headquarters in San Francisco, offices opened early and hundreds of
employees flocked to the 9th floor
cafeteria to watch the festivities on TV
while eating «cronuts,» a croissant - donut hybrid, made by Twitter's resident chef, Lance Holton.
However, if an
employee is injured
while returning from company - sponsored education classes, or goes to the restroom, visits the
cafeteria, has a coffee break, or steps out of a nonsmoking office to smoke a cigarette, and is injured, workers» compensation boards and courts typically recognize that employers benefit from these «non business»
employee conveniences, and often award compensation.
