Members sevenroy Posted May 20, 2005 Members Share Posted May 20, 2005 I had somewhat of a long night last night, didn't get home until 4:00 (out partying with the crew) but had to be to work at 7:00. Luckily, they have a quiet area here for us to relax in. I've been taking the occasional three to five minute "nap" just to keep my energy at a decent level. That, and an espresso every couple of hours. I should mention I work in a call center, so it's not a big deal for me to go off of the phone for a bit.

Members Bonoman Posted May 20, 2005 Members Share Posted May 20, 2005 I took a nap yesterday and am planning on another this afternoon. I don't know why, but I'm dead tired this week! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members StevieMac Posted May 20, 2005 Members Share Posted May 20, 2005 Wish I could. By Friday I'm ALWAYS sleep deprived. At least it's a long weekend here in Canada. Eh. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm not either, but when I'm so tired my eyes won't stay open, and I do need to check on things once in a while here, I think it's necessary.

Damn right, you'll have enough time to sleep when you're dead. If you sleep 8 hours a night you are spending 1/3 of your life asleep. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members BEAD Posted May 20, 2005 Members Share Posted May 20, 2005 I work with a guy who sleeps on the couch in the lobby of our coffee shop during his lunch break. I choose not to. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members leepmeister Posted May 20, 2005 Members Share Posted May 20, 2005 I take naps...by mistake My internship involves running lab tests, and I'm supposed to be reading a bunch of stuff to learn what it's all about... It's soooo hard to stay awake, and sometimes I notice it's 20 minutes later and I haven't gotten thru a paragraph yet. This website also doesn't help me get that reading done one bit Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members HoldingThsMoment Posted May 20, 2005 Members Share Posted May 20, 2005 nope, but i wish i could. i usually work 9-6 or 9-7 so my days get long and tiring. the work isn't all that strenuous (lots of vinyl work and gold leafing on trucks and signs and whatnot) but it still gets tiring like anything else.

Members Oddsock Posted May 21, 2005 Members Share Posted May 21, 2005 I've fallen asleep while on the phone with customers. Although, I didn't get the impression that they noticed. It's a good thing I take notes while talking to people. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
