It seems like once a year you'll see some fluff news piece on how someplace is starting a naptime during work hours. It cracks me up. More and more, we really are getting it to were even adulthood is like pre-school.

Dude, that's amazing. I just woke up from a doozy of a nap to find this thread.

The trick is just to take naps anyway, and then have a really convincing doctor's note that says you have narcolepsy and there's nothing you can do about it because you have a serious medical condition.

I wouldn't mind a nap right now.

It happens to be nearly 11pm though. I do not wish to actually go to be for the night, but a nap sound brilliant.

Yeah, and isn't it great that it's happening for OUR generation.

Just got back from a nap, good times.

Naps; In Spain they´re called siestas. Just one on a long list of excuses to accomplish absolutely nothing, and reason number two Spain is jostling England for second place in line behind Greece for next EU country to go belly-up (and not to the bar). However, only reason number 352 on my list of reasons to get the fuck off this slow-motion shipwreck.

Oh, I live in Valencia; little over 4 years now; It sucks. Naps are for children. Thus, the siesta.

Won´t find too many Catalunyans shouting that phrase. Siesta equals España; Catalunya...not so much. But cute. Soccer fan?

I'll be in my classroom sometimes during my free period and already feel wiped out. In such cases, I lay a cardboard box on the floor and use my booksatchel as a pillow. Alarm provided by cell-phone. FTW.

So anyways, when I was working at the hot dog factory, our maintenance department had this mezzanine in it. We had this thing completely decked out as a lounge, with a couch at a bunch of chairs and whatnot. About every single day someone was up there taking a nap. The whole thing was laid out perfectly so that if a boss or anyone came in someone could see down to let the napper know to get up and the person downstairs would never know.

Eventually, we even got to the point where we had a couple electricians set up a motion sensor thing so a red light a buzzer would go off upstairs if someone pushed the door open. It was really an engineering marvel.
