    I always wonder where these mythical offices are that allow naps during the day...

    Why you should drink coffee before a nap

    https://thetakeout.com/why-you-should-drink-coffee-before-naps-1830227556

    Our staff is collectively pro-naps. A short midday snooze resets tired brains, improves creativity, and keeps crankiness at bay. But how to keep the naps from turning into straight-up sleeping, which makes us feel groggy and out of it? Drink coffee before napping.

      Coffee naps work brilliantly. Drink double shot, have a nap. Wake up 20 minutes later when the caffeine kicks in, ready for the second shift.

      I do a lot of >12 hour working days during vintage and these can be a great help.

        Recently had a good friend give me this tip, now to find a job that allows naps during the day like Rockford said

          Haha, coffee actually strangely relaxes me anyway XD, but love the midday nap idea for sure!

                  Thought this was interesting, coffee cups made from recycled coffee grounds. A lot of it is in German but you get the gist of the videos watching them.

                          Hearing and seeing the "insiders" admit it for a change is the sobering part.

                              I'll have my coffee the way I prefer it, not the way some snotty nosed barista tells me I should have it.

                              I like this "Last month, the shop started stocking milk and cream behind the bar for people who ask (it’s still not sitting out in the open and was secretly poured for a few months before that" the spartan policy was obviously having a detrimental affect on the bottom line.
