Asleep on the Job

In China, many people take a noon-time nap. In fact, getting business done from noon to two PM is often difficult. If the office has any workers, they are likely to be cranky and uncooperative. I’ve learned to avoid that time frame altogether.

The tradition of a noon-time nap is the only explanation that I have for all the people you find sleeping on the job or just taking a nap in odd places, right in public.

I'm not sure if she works here or was passing by and saw a great place for a snooze.

Makes you a bit sleepy to see them all resting, doesn’t it?
