Falling asleep in work

Dublin Chick

OK I just fell asleep at my desk and was woken by the phone ringing....

I am very tired today and basically don't feel like doing anything. I work alone and my boss pops into the office a few times a week but I never know if he will be in from one day to the next.

I have a master plan, I was going to lock the door from the inside and pop a note on the outside saying I have gone for lunch put my feet up and have a nice sleep. Good idea or bad?

Why didnt you call a sickie?

Go to the toilet and fall asleep in there.

Do a Mission Impossible job. Break a few lightbulbs and spread the glass at the door. Should hear anyone come in that way.

Or buy those glasses with the eyes on them. Y'know the ones.

Ruu_Old

You're fired!

Your monday afternoon work **** will have to go on the backburner now.

Also why aren't you on lunch?

Fell asleep here when I was covering the phones during lunch last Thursday. Got one of those jumpy moments then realised I had drool on my arm and it was 10 minutes later. Felt better for it too. Sleep away OP, sleep away.

There is your first mistake, should have taken it of the hook, you would still be asleep now.

We used to have these huge shelves with a front on them in my old job. Often times you'd climb up and find someone asleep in them.
God,I miss that job

Ah here you can't blame the country being fcuked on my little snooze. Also I would like to say that this is only about the third time in 15 years I have fallen asleep on the job. Basically I don't think having a sleep every 5 years in work is all that bad.

I would have called in sick but due to my finances being fcuked I had to move home and to be honest a sick day is just not the same when you live with your mam and dad.

Give it ten mins before you fall asleep incase he forgot something and comes back. After that you are in the clear and enjoy your kip. Tomorrow bring your PJ's in with you to make it all the more comfortable

Kill your boss and sleep in his innards, Star Wars shtyle

Every day bring something extra in with you, tomorrow your toothbrush, next day your duvet, then your teddy bear etc, he won't know the subtle (:P) differences and before long you will have your bedroom and essentials in work and you won't have to worry about living with Mam & Dad.....and don't forget to have a 'house warming' some Friday night :pac:

I used to work in a hotel,we used to go into the empty conference rooms and climb under tables and have a nap when we were hanging on a sunday morning.

One girl though came in ****faced from the night before dropping plates and wobbling around, manager gave her a room key and told her to get some kip-lucky bitch!

eyescreamcone

Had a job years back where I did a bit of driving.
I often pulled in and had a little snooze - If I was tired it was the safest thing to do I told myself

My goodness your a GENIUS! I love this idea! Basically you wake up in the am and ur already in work, regardless of what time you wake up at your on time......Well I was here at 9.00am boss, and ACTUALLY a few mornings this week I was here as early as six :eek:

There is nothing wrong with having ten minute nap on your break,if you are very tired you cannot concentrate anyway so it would be beneficial to your boss.
Tell him this if he catches you asleep.you must be wide awake now.

That's the spirit, "Yes boss I was here at 6 this morn! You don't believe me? Well the evidence is over in that plant in the corner cos I rolled out of bed at 6 and had a piss in it so there! Now if you'll excuse me Jeremy Kyle is about to start so I'll bid you good day sir" :pac:

Nope I could go asleep right now but have decided to battle through and leave at 4, I do enjoy a train sleep so I look forward to that on the way home.

You're a trooper, fair play :P
Just make sure you don't miss your stop on the train and don't get stuck next to somebody who has their iPod on full blast so everyone can hear what they are listening to :rolleyes:

A few weeks ago I went into town shopping on a Saturday and had a few cheeky vinos after with a friend, I got the DART a bit tipsy and fell asleep, I woke up with a guy in an orange iarnrod eireann jacket standing over me trying to wake me (I have been told that when I am in a deep sleep this is near impossible!). I was basically in a parked train that had gone to Bray, gone out of service and was parked miles away from any platform, the guy had to drive the train right back up to let me out....cringe
