Why You Should Demand Nap Time at Work


When pilots are given a nap of just 30 minutes on long haul flights, they experience a 16 per cent increase in their reaction time. Nonnapping pilots experience a 34 per cent decrease over the course of the flight. 

And, according to scientists, the best time for a nap is between 1 and 3PM -- right smack in the middle of your workday.

So, with this research in hand, walk over to the boss and explain the situation. Then, retire to your office or cube for 30 minutes of shuteye.

Let me know how it goes.
