    On my breaks I go to our quiet room and I'm normally out cold. There have been a few times when I forgot to set my alarm and a 15 minute break turned into 35 minute power nap

    During lunch breaks. I actually havd a sleeping disorder and have had to click off early for the day to sleep in my car a couple times though. Had to call it a migraine, because few employers understand "I AM going to sleep right now, I'd prefer to be out of view when it happens."

    I did that once.... then the guy I had a huge crush on walked in the break room and saw me drooling. Never again.

    I often just wear some strategically placed marshmallows. Pretty much anytime of year, so no.

    I'll bring the chocolate and graham crackers.

    Yes but only because I have an office door.

    No I have never taken a nap at any workplace. Although I wish the work policies in the U.S.A. would allow people to take brief nap just like those who work in Japan. Europe has a four week vacation policy which sounds fantastic too.

    I know someone who curls up under her desk and goes to sleep.

    Only once. When I was a highschool radio DJ and did a stint from 12am to 6am for a promotion at a store. I was locked in the store till the morning and was only allowed to go to the area where the bathroom was. There was dead air for about 2 hours according to my boss at the time.

    I don't sleep well at night so sometimes on my lunch breaks I'll go nap in my car. I do worry that I won't wake up on time, so far that's only happened once :#

    we have a meditation room, so I've been known to take a walk up there if I'm having a long/crappy day

    Yep. Two or three weeks ago I fell asleep at my desk for almost an hour while researching. I was tired and that YouTube video I played to supply "productive" workplace music helped put me to sleep. Lol.

    There's napping and there's virtual napping with eyes open but mind disengaged.
