Not true at all. The concept of "siesta" exists, but nobody does it at work. It's mostly something for retired people with a lot of free time and not much to do.

So what do all the retail staff do when the shops close between 12 and 3?

Only small shops do this, and it's more of a 1-to-4 thing. I guess they could... I don't know, have lunch, spend time with their family, do some chores?

Besides, you can't expect a small store with one or two employees (e.g. a bookshop) to be open from 9 AM to 8 PM without any breaks in between.
