So many of my entries seem to be about sleep
And this is no exception.
I've been sleeping at my desk, under it actually during lunch sometimes, and before work a few times. I nod off at my desk sometimes, and the naps are my way of trying to fend that off. Hurray for being on three medications that ALL make a person drowsey. I've been doing this since January when I came back from leave.
My boss saw me doing it, and in fact, saw me doing it a good many times, and never said anything about it. Turns out it's not acceptable, and my New boss found out about if trom the VP level. So, for at least a couple months people have been talking about my unacceptable behavior to each other, and no one has botherd to either tell me it wasn't ok, or to find out why it was happening.
I'm torn between pissed and horribly embarassed. I'm a good worker. I come in and do my best and my best is very good. Now that doesn't matter. I'm "the girl who sleeps under her desk." My new boss is good. He wanted me to know it wasn't ok, but knows, and ays the blame for me doing it this long lays on the shoulders of my boss who didn't tell me not to. I'm supposed to go the next week without napping, and see what happens. The reason I started, was to correct the nodding off between calls which had been happening.
So tonight I'm bringing my blanket and yoga mat since I'm sure yoga at work is also not going to be considered ok. I'm moving to the building Without the gym in a week or so, and I'm a bit lost at this point as to what to do with myself, and how to keep from nodding off. Stopping the meds is currently not an option.
Right now all I want to do is curl up under that same desk and cry.
