Former Member — Fri, 30 Jan 2009 06:21:35 GMT

I need to know some of the methods followed by my friends to avoid sleeping during the meeings or during office hours.Because at times i m finding hard to overcome this evil thing when something 'bore' me hard.

Kindly pour some good teknics for my disorder..if you have.

Even with a sip of real Black coffee(famous at my place) i feel very hard to solve this prob.

Cheers

Andrew

Oh come on.. be imaginative. There is so much you can do to keep yourself awake in a meeting. If you are an animal lover, imagine yourself in an African safari roaming with wild animals. If you love money, imagine you made a big fortune by being somebody like Bill Gates or Georg Soros. If you love math, try to solve some partial differenciation equations in your mind or on a piece of paper. If you love art, draw sketches of other meeting participants, who are probably sleeping. If you love writing, start to compose your biography. If you hate your boss, try to think about some genius ways to torture him/her. The best thing is, whatever you are doing, nobody will notice it because they are either too sleepy or they are too busy doing what your are doing.

Maybe you need to learn how to be a day dreamer.

My Italian colleague says he doesn't drink coffee in the morning because it would keep him awake in the office... and he'd be too tired to party in the evening.

Maybe you should ask your Italian friend to try some Irish Coffee in the morning.

Then he'll be tired of partying in the office.

I am so glad you like my suggestion. Finally, I have the job satisfaction that I've been seeking for years.
