am I the only one who thinks this isn’t cute, but very very sad indication of overworked and underprivileged people trying desperately to make the most of a horrible situation?

Who wouldn’t want to be able to take a nap at work? And to be able to trust the people around you enough to feel comfortable doing it?

It is great to see how people need their rest no matter where or what!!

If those ducks were smart they’d eat him before he woke up. Aha! The tables have turned now!

Never been able to nap like that, except when i have pulled some kind of 24+ hour awake period. I guess i have the luxury of not getting bodily exhausted.

Hmm, is this perhaps inspired by the Big Picture feature on “sleeping” with the exact same theme, posted two days ago? http://www.boston.com/bigpicture/2011/08/sleepers.html
Attribution, perhaps?

I had to sleep over night on those bench/chairs at the Newark airport when my flight got overbooked. When I was half-asleep, I felt something draped over me so peeked open my eyes. Some lovely nightshift worker had come over and put a blanket on me. I whispered ‘Thank you’ but I don’t think he heard me. Nicest thing a stranger’s done for me.

Also, that person sleeping next to the cabbages looks incredibly comfy. I want a basket to sleep in complete with a fluffy blankie.

About to keel over from exhaustion at my office desk, no comfy nap basket for me :p

Back in the days when I was fruit harvesting in Australia (as a very poor backpacker!) I used to be able to sleep like this. Every ten minutes I had to spare were spend sleeping, and I slept solid – even a kangaroo hopping by wouldn’t be able to wake me. True story!

I slept on my wife’s labour bed when she was having contractions. The nurses and doctors were pointing at me through the window and laughing, I am told.

Fell asleep on a shelf above a radiator once, warmest place in the room on a very cold day. It was probably 6 inches wide, but I’ve never been an XXL.

Your server room is too damn warm if you can nap in it; I always need about three jumpers if I’m going to be staying in hours for more than 20 minutes or so!

A long time ago, at a party far far away I slept in a turned-off freezer. Why did I sleep in the freezer? Because the top of it was already taken.

I worked for a small coffee roaster, and sometimes got to work a bit too early, and napped on the green coffee sacks. Give it the ol Barista taint!

Server rooms are dangerously nap inducing (nappy?). The droning of fans and A/C vents, the hum of electronics. So soothing…Zzzzz…..

I used to sleep on the coils of rope between stations on the upper deck of the oceangraphic vessel I used to work on.

This story only further reminds me of the importance of washing your food. Some guy’s behind may have slept on it for hours.
