Sleeping on the job

Some good news for a change. As a kind of sequel to the virtues of idleness, now a group of dedicated researchers brings the news that sleeping on the job is good for you.

So it’s thousands of cheers for the East of England Development Agency (EEDA), whose researchers have concluded that, in order to help maximise our potential and increase productivity, we should all sleep more…

A new way of thinking involving 40 winks at regular intervals is a dazzling prospect, and - if taken to its logical conclusion - should lead to the installation of beds and sofas in every workplace so that crucially important sleep can be enjoyed at will.
