Ten Excuses Employees Might Give When They're Caught Sleeping at their Desks.

Any of these sounds familiar. . .

1 -- "They told me at the blood bank this might happen."
2 -- "This is just a 15-minute power nap like they raved about in that time management course you sent me to."
3 -- "Whew! Guess I left the top off the liquid paper. You probably got here just in time."
4 -- "This is in exchange for the six hours last night when I dreamed about work."
5 -- "It's okay ... I'm still billing the client."
6 -- "I wasn't sleeping! I was meditating on the mission statement."
7 -- "I was testing my keyboard for drool resistance."
8 -- "I was doing a yoga exercise to relieve work-related stress."
9 -- "Rats! Why did you interrupt me? I almost had figured out a solution to our biggest company problem."
10 -- "Someone must have put decaf in the wrong pot."
