What about an employee work schedule? I want to assign an employee

Friday, with a lunch break from 12:00 to 12:30pm. Where would those
recurring events go?
Here's what I wrote in Jira OFBIZ-1956: "To push this further, and to
answer Jacques' question: the WorkEffort entity is already designed
to handle work schedules using the WorkEffortType "Available" (ID:
AVAILABLE)."
Wouldn't that be confusing? When someone is working they are
available? It seems to me someone is available if they are *not* working.
That's correct, they're not working, they're available for work. In
other words those are times when events (or tasks with scheduling) can
be assigned, or when looking at all tasks assigned and their estimated
times how many days it will take to complete them (and when each will
start, etc).
Understood.
Okay, one more question (for future reference, not having to do with
recurring events):
In the example I gave above, I need to show that the employee is working
during those hours - that they are *not* available. Is there a
WorkEffortType for that?
I'm coming from the perspective of production employees punching a time
clock. They are supposed to be working 8am - 5pm, Monday through Friday.
