Overheard someone at the library say they use Pomodoro backwards

This lady at the Seattle public library was telling a friend she does 25 minutes of break time first, then 5 minutes of work. She said it tricks her brain into starting because the work part feels short. I tried it on my closet organization project yesterday and got 3 shelves done before noon. Has anyone else tried flipping the timer like that?
