You know when you're really tired at work?

Huw3481 · 2015-01-22T19:15:32.000Z

And something happens to wake you up?

sqlrage · 2015-01-22T19:19:50.000Z

The struggle is real.

starg33ker · 2015-01-22T19:35:05.000Z

Ok I had to grab a tissue for that one.

We’ve had those moments!

gavinscactus · 2015-01-22T19:41:01.000Z

That was me Tuesday after the long weekend… Dang.

pattena · 2015-01-22T19:41:01.000Z

I’m kind of doing that today sitting at my desk.

rayaustin2 · 2015-01-22T19:58:03.000Z

Me after lunch.

rojoloco · 2015-01-22T19:58:29.000Z

That’s me right now…

I’m on my third time viewing this video. It hasn’t stopped being funny yet!

Me after lunch.

Everyone after lunch ;). You should just see all of my coworkers (me included) after an hour or half an hour after our lunch time.

No, what’s this “waking up” thing you refer to?

gretchenr · 2015-01-22T21:52:12.000Z

Awwww. Meerkats are so cute! They look like little people when they stand up. I could watch those adorable little things all day.

brendan-kelley · 2015-01-23T11:27:34.000Z

This happens to me more than I’d like to admit.

ivanidea · 2015-01-23T11:51:55.000Z

Monday mornings are like that, at least until the coffee kicks in.

rune3280 · 2015-01-23T11:53:34.000Z

Monday morning meetings

I do have some tips you are struggling.

I’ve recently tried waking up 20 mins earlier than normal and just watching a tv show before I get ready in the morning. I think this gives my brain time to wake up instead of doing the whole I’m going to be late, rushing to have a shower and running into work.

If you have a flexible lunch then try to eat it slightly earlier, I find it gives me going through the afternoon.

Small breakfast → coffee → fruit → lunch → fruit. Small portions often seems to be better and I find i’m much less reliant on coffee.

Switch between different projects throughout the day if you can. Avoid plugging away at just one, mix it up.

Water, water and more water! Fill your glass only halfway so you have to get up more often to fill it.

Move around the office etc, make your rounds.

Mini breaks to check spice works for a few mins!

Anyway, I know not everyone’s situation is as flexible and sometimes you have to grind through patches but try to remember work is only as enjoyable as you make it

I was woken up at 1:30am last night, it was a phone call from a field user.

I could not get back to sleep for at least an hour.

Was up at 5am to get here at 6am.

By 2PM this afternoon I will be a Meerkat

callie-for-insight · 2015-01-23T16:01:03.000Z

After lunch slump for sure.

gulfsailor · 2015-01-23T16:32:07.000Z

This is what coffee is for.
