Mid-day crisis refers to the situation when one is in a desperate need for a siesta because they become extremely tired in the afternoon and coffee isn’t cutting it any longer, or when it’s the middle of the day, and you realize you have a lot to do and not enough time to do it. As a result, your mind locks up and you can’t work, you just sit and pity yourself.

午間危機指下午特別疲憊急需午睡來恢復精神的情況，這個時候咖啡什么的已經不管用了。另外，午間危機也可以指到了中午才意識到還有很多工作要做，而剩下的時間已經不夠用的情況。在這種情況下，人的大腦就會自動鎖定，無法繼續工作，只能坐在那里顧影自憐。

For example:

Perhaps casual chatting with colleagues in the pantry over a cup of tea for a good fifteen minutes will soothe the mid-day crisis symptoms.

到餐室喝杯茶，跟同事閑聊個15分鐘可能會緩解午間危機的癥狀。
