    I wish I could sleep at work. Lots of guys do but, I just can't for some reason.

    The guy next to me right now keeps looking over my shoulder reading TW (I'm not supposed to notice) and shitting his pants. Gonna have to move if he keeps it up.

    I can't do it either. Some nights I will be so tired and I find a place to hide out and catch a few zzzzz's. Then I am so paranoid about being caught sleeping that it actually wakes me up.

    I hear ya. It's not that here it's okay if we sleep if we're not assigned (and I'm not) but, it's just the people being around I think....maybe fear of being fucked with. Bastards!

    Find a place to park? Do that GPS you? Can you hit the house and hang out?

    I'm not all about ripping off "the man" but, nights is different for most folks man. I'm one of the few at work and doesn't have to catch some sleep once in a while at work. Course the kids out of the house and I'm currently single so I sleep 5 or 6 hours uninterupted at home right before I come to work.

    na my house is too far away. plus we are usually tto busy to head home or something. however, some nights are slower than others. I used to not have GPS on my car and none of our cars do but, i just got this starchase thingamabob on my brush guard and it pings my location 1x per hour and when i turn the car off at night. No biggie though. I usually dont have trouble staying awake either. been on mids for 12 years...
