Napping on the job? There’s an upside.
Are you taking a daily aspirin? Maybe you shouldn’t.
Since 1990, lawyers (excluding lobbyists) have contributed more than $1 billion to candidates for federal office — more than any other group.

Thanks. I’m all in favor of napping on the job.

I have been taking a daily aspirin. You just ruined my day.

I’ll be forwarding the napping article to my boss.

I would say the lawyers are getting a very good return on their investment.

If napping after lunch increases learning power so much, why isn’t Mexico doing better than it is? Their daily siestas should make Mexico one of the world’s intellectual powerhouses.

Juan, why do you think only Mexicans take siestas?

Larry: Whether we’re talking about Mexico, Greece, Sicily, the Philippines, or any of the other countries that practice afternoon napping, is there a discernable national benefit to taking an after-lunch nap?
I don’t know the answer. My only real experience with this involved a personal nightmare trying to exchange currency while traveling abroad. Good luck finding an open bank at 2:00pm in southern Spain.

If politicians and bureaucrats napped on the job, the rest of us might be able to our jobs more easily!
