I know most bosses and managers will be skeptical of employees taking a short nap during working hours, if not outright reject such a suggestion.
However, it seems that there are benefits associated with getting a quick rest after lunch.
If you can convince your manager/boss (or if YOU are the boss), napping may be a habit worth trying out.

Well there's still about a month left for us WfH people to experiment with napping after lunch.

I think many managers will have to deal with whatever new habits employees may have developed over the wfm period. I hope napping will catch on.
I personally think it's a good idea to let staff members take a short nap if it does help to boost overall productivity. After all, it'd be wiser to think that companies are paying employees for their output and not the number of hours worked, right?

Yeah...but some bosses are still stuck with the mindset that they're paying for your time. I noticed it's mostly the previous generations of bosses though.
