Caught Asleep At Your Work Desk

Just in case your boss catches you asleep at your desk, be ready to blurt out one of these excuses:
*I was working smarter - not harder.
*They told me at the blood bank that this might happen.
*Whew! I must have left the top off the whiteout.
*I wasn't sleeping! I was meditating on our mission statement
*This is one of the seven habits of highly effective people!
*I'm in the management training program.
*I'm actually doing a Stress Level Elimination Exercise Plan (SLEEP). I learned at the last mandatory seminar you made me attend.
*This is in exchange for the six hours last night when I dreamed about work!
*Darn! Why did you interrupt me? I had almost figured out a solution to our biggest problem.
*Someone was playing a practical joke ? and put decaf in the wrong pot.
*Gosh, I thought you (the boss) were gone for the day.
