Sometimes, but I usually end up sleeping in a bit (my usual commuting time) so that gives me some extra energy to get through the day!

I often fit in a power nap in the early afternoon. Sometimes it takes 10 minutes to feel powerful, sometimes 2 hours

Yesterday I fell asleep from 3:30 to 5:30 because my dog was soooo comfy and wanted snuggles. Oops.

Wrong question. You should be asking: do you guys work when WFH 🤫

likefunny

Wfh totally. If I don’t have anything due and the SO wants snuggles she gets snuggles

Yes, absolutely. I also take naps in the office nap room. I’m xAmazon so coming from a world where it’s not taboo to take 20 minutes for yourself in the midst of 12 hours for your client/customer.

Deliver results, OP. And get some rest.

Of course. It’s actually terrible American culture looks down on napping when it clearly boosts productivity

likeupliftingfunny

Of course. ~20 minute power naps are pretty common for most remote workers. You probably end up spending that amount of time to get dressed for work, having casual conversations with colleagues in the office, driving to work, etc. anyway, so why the hell not refresh with a nap.

I was super hungover one Friday when I was wfh and passed out on a conference call I was taking from my couch. I apparently snored for a good 40 minutes in the call. It was not my best day at the Firm.

Oh yes. My naps can go from 45 mins to 2 hours depending on the day.
