Default How do I nap at work?

I have a cube and it's right next to a door so people are always walking by. How can I sleep in my chair but make it look like I'm just staring at the screen? Is there a website where it looks like someone doing busy work like a flash movie or something?

Default Re: How do I nap at work?

this is what i did at an internship last year. i would keep unplugging my ethernet cable and the cubicles around me. people would complain and i said i used to fix computers in high school. i would plug everyone back in and say I needed to reinforce the connections. i would then lie down under the cubicle and put my head on some magazines behind the computer and rest. an ode to fav character of all time, COSTANZA

I just take naps on in the bathroom stalls. Toiletpaper rolls are amazingly comfortable.

I usually do the sleep sitting up and wake up as people pass. Definitely an acquired skill, but necessary for the 9 to 5ers that like to stay out late.

I think you can do a bunch of very short rests and never get caught.

Just close your eyes for a good 5 seconds and open them real quick. If you do this for like 15 minutes you'll feel pretty rested.

If anyone asks what you're doing say something went in your eye. It would only look weird if someone managed to watch you for a while (but you're opening your eyes often so this shouldn't happen).

Do what I do and everyday at lunch just go out to your car and sleep for 30 minutes, come back in and eat lunch for another 30 minutes, not getting yelled at for an hour break when we're only supposed to have 30 mins is pretty sweet.
