What To Say If Caught Sleeping At Your Desk!
April 14, 2009 by Susan Denny
Face it, we all feel sleepy the moment we enter the office premises. But what if your boss caught you sleeping at your desk? Here is what you can tell him:
- “They told me at the blood bank this might happen.”
- “This is just a 15 minute power-nap as described in that time management course you sent me.”
- “Whew! Guess I left the top off the White-Out You probably got here just in time!”
- “I wasn’t sleeping! I was meditating on the mission statement and envisioning a new paradigm.”
- “I was testing my keyboard for drool resistance.”
- “I was doing Yoga exercises to relieve work-related stress.”
- “Damn! Why did you interrupt me? I had almost figured out a solution to our biggest problem.”
- “The coffee machine is broken…”
- “Someone must’ve put decaf in the wrong pot…”
- ” … in Jesus’ name. Amen.”
There’s an excuse in there for everyone!
