    I had worked I think 10 years in a small factory after I got out of the Army. Loved the factory job BUT they tried to housebreak me and give me an office job. (My mother was VPā€¦.a title only) I lasted 2 days and I bolted out of the door. Got my old job back. Told the owner that I wanted to work for myself and he said smart move and gave me full unemployment benefits. He was a great guy

    I could see it might be hard to stay awake in a tea cozy factory alright.

    From the looks of Brutusā€™ desk, heā€™s finished his work and waiting for some more work to do. Donā€™t tell the Chief though, Chief will pile so much for you to do youā€™ll never get it done, then heā€™ll yell at you for being behind. The circle of working life. (Retirement is grand!)

    It might have been best to let him sleep, probably more productive than when heā€™s awake!

    But boss, I was dreaming I was awake (I actually heard this excuse in a real life experience. It was so funny and true that it kept the guy from getting in trouble)

    This reminds me of my baby sister, when she was around five. It was a warm Summer evening and my siblings and I were sitting with mom and dad on the porch, watching the fireflies, listening to the cattle talk and hearing the hogs grunt. It was around 8:30pm and the sun wouldnā€™t set for another hour and half. It was nice.

    Dad looked over at my sister, Rosa and said ā€œRosa, go to bed. Youā€™re tired and almost asleep. Your eyes are closedā€. My sister Rosa immediately responded, ā€œUn hun, daddy. Iā€™m checking my eyelids for holes in themā€.

    She was something else and if I had time, I could tell you all kinds of stories. From chasing a mouse down and catching it, to acting like she thought cow pies were oohee, when he date stepped in one.

    I would have recorded it on my phone and have his termination done before I woke him up. Been there before, had an employee sleeping on a shelf in the back storage, slept through lunch rush.

    I have sleep apnea and, when I was working (Iā€™m now retired), I had to resort to chewing gum all the time to stay awake.
