      Yep. I work in a daycare, at nap time with all the lights off all the kids asleep relaxing music playing while you are on the floor with a pillow rubbing some ones back, the best of us have nodded off.

      The trick is to sleep lightly, and if you get caught, raise your head slowly, open your eyes, and say, "Amen".

      I used to work at lowe's. jumped into the bunk of 6x6's pushed one up to block anyone from seeing and slept off a good hour of my hangover.

      Sometimes I go into the bathroom, we have one stalls with locking doors, and take a 10 minute siesta. Luckily, I am the only girl in my office so no one is waiting on me to get out! :laugh:

      Only once when I was ill. I literally just lay down on the floor of the cloakroom type room (cause it has a boiler in, its really warm)
      My boss, who knew I was ill, I woke up to her screaming for help for me. AWKWARD!

      I admit to napping at work. I work at home now in a satellite office and I crash on my floor every so often, but even at the office it's not uncommon to find someone (especially the boss) stretched out on the floor of their office! We're kind of laid back! :laugh:

      I get to look at women's boobs all day. Why in the H3LL would I want to sleep at work?
    • Posts: 2,486 Member
      Nope, I can barely sleep at home. I'm like the energizer bunny. Someone know how to wind me down then I am all bunny ears.

      Yes, but it's rare. I have an office to myself so being on HERE is rebellion enough in my eyes.

      I used to work at a 24 hour convenience store out in the middle of no where. We closed the doors from 2-6 to not get robbed and would only serve through a tiny window. Somewhere between 3 and 4 I would go to the freezer and take a nap under a giant blanket =D That is the only time I ever slept at work.

      I actually haven't, it's really hard for me to take naps since I don't fall asleep quickly. Even if I'm tired.

      i have never napped. I have felt myself nod a little in the past.

      i have fired people for sleeping on the job, though. it was a different company, and i was in a different position.

      I tried. And failed.

      I fell asleep at my desk once at my current job. Didn't even realize my eyes were closed until the VP walked out the door, which is right next to my desk, so I'm pretty sure he saw. When I was still in school, I used to fall asleep at work pretty often. I would wake up with the Sergeant standing behind me, because my hand was resting on my keyboard and he heard the "click click click click..." coming from the cursor running across the screen.
