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(jī)指下午特別疲憊急需午睡來(lái)恢復(fù)精神的情況，這個(gè)時(shí)候咖啡什么的已經(jīng)不管用了。另外，午間危機(jī)也可以指到了中午才意識(shí)到還有很多工作要做，而剩下的時(shí)間已經(jīng)不夠用的情況。在這種情況下，人的大腦就會(huì)自動(dòng)鎖定，無(wú)法繼續(xù)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(gè)15分鐘可能會(huì)緩解午間危機(jī)的癥狀。
