Top fifteen excuses to use if you're caught napping at work:
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 the last time management course you sent me to."
3. "Whew! Guess I left the top off the liquid paper."
4. "I wasn't sleeping! I was meditating on the mission statement and envisioning a new paradigm!"
5. "This is one of the seven habits of highly effective people!"
6. "I was testing the keyboard for drool resistance."
7. "Actually doing a "Stress Level Elimination Exercise Plan" (SLEEP) I learned at the last mandatory seminar you made me attend."
8. "I was doing a highly specific Yoga exercise to relieve work-related stress. Are you discriminatory towards people who practice Yoga?"
9. "Darn! Why did you interrupt me? I had almost figured out a solution to our biggest problem."
10."The coffee machine is broken...."
11."Someone must've put decaf in the wrong pot."
12."Boy, that cold medicine I took last night just won't wear off!"
13."Ah, the unique and unpredictable circadian rhythms of the workaholic!"
14."Wasn't sleeping. Was trying to pick up contact lens without hands."
15."Amen."
