Ever Fall Asleep at Work

Allllllllll the time

Dude across the row over falls asleep all the time. I can see his head bobbing and hear him snore sometimes.

Just once. I worked all weekend trying to finish something, stayed up 36 straight hours, went to work on Monday to turn it in and slept til lunch at my desk before driving back home.

I brought it on myself by procrastinating the whole week. Like I'm doing right now.

Had a big dude that played offensive line for ULM that used to work with me. He'd fall asleep sitting up in front of his computer with his headphones on and his back to the door. You tap that big bastard on the shoulder when he's out and you better be ready to run.

I've been sleepy in meetings and at my desk here and there but falling asleep at work? Nah. I value my job-and my reputation-too much to pass out at work.

That's just completely unprofessional in my view. I get that you've been grinding or the poster with the 36 hour story. If I were a supervisor or middle manager who saw that, I'd obviously just nudge you and tell you to knock off for the day.

But you fall asleep on me once, and I'm gonna take you behind closed doors to ask you if there's something wrong. If it's nothing, then you're going to get a warning that the next time it happens you'll be unemployed.

not much anymore

I definitely dozed off for a minute or two after our thanksgiving potluck a couple weeks ago. It happens

I used to work for a local municipality while in college, parks and recreation. During the winter, there isn't much grass cutting or sports going on.

There were days that I would come into work at 6, sleep till lunch at 11, then come back at 12 and sleep to 2:30. Then off for night classes.
