The language of productivity is now being used to advocate napping on the job

I sometimes nap in the middle of the workday because I feel sleepy. Not because I think it will make me more productive. Everything doesn't always have to be justified on the basis of productivity, you know.

Actually, this reminds me of the Onion video about the app that makes workers productive even in their sleep. http://www.theonion.com/video/new-app-lets-you-work-for-your...

That really depends on who is paying for your time. If I own a company and you want to nap on company time, then you definitely need to justify it on the basis of productivity.

I don't envy you your job search if it's important to find an employer who'll let you sleep during work.
