Hey Boss! Let me take a nap...

Should boss allow workers/employee to sleep on the job? ABSOLUTELY but only limited to lunch time period. Don't you feel its difficult to get back to work with a full stomach and and a sleepy head due to lack of blood circulation to the brain. Most of the body blood circulate to the stomach to extract whatever good stuff or junk from the food that we take during lunch thus workers are not really at their 100% capacity right after lunch.

Rather than letting them drag on for the first 1 or 2 hours after lunch time and making slow or zero achievement or allowing them to hide in their cubicle pretending to work when actually they are dozing off in from of the PC, I think its a good idea to just give employee a 1 hour "digestion" nap on top of their 45mins lunch time.

Of course this kind of welfare sometimes could be subjected to abuse, thus the boss must ensure that everyone is back from dreamland and in efficient working mood. That means a spy camera installed in every cubicle and a 90inch Plasma TV screen (in place of a gold tap) right infront of the boss to make sure no one is catching any extra naps, an indication of worker not utilizing their 1 hour "digestion" nap and going for shopping instead. The monitoring system could be further refine with a "Promote or Fire" Artificial Intelligence system to advise our very busy Big Boss the Hard working Ants to promote, the Lazy sloth to demote and the Wayang King to fire...
