I am working in BPO concern in Chennai. I am doing 10 hours job daily in my office. I feel very tired. My eyes get irritated by seeing the monitor. I used to go home in the morning and have the breakfast first. Then i read newspaper and slowly the sleep starts. Then i go to bed and have a sleep for about 6 hr. daily. Then also i feel tired. I don't why it is not working. My office time is like that. It cannot be changed.

We should sleep atleast for 6 hours. When we sleep six hours in the night, we wont feel tired. But in the day time, there are so many chance of getting disturbed. We cant sleep continuously. We may get phone calls, some of them may be important and we have to attend it. Some parts of the body functions only at particular time. When we are in the night shift, they dont function as they are suppose to be. As our body gets affected, we feel tired, even when we sleep for more hours in the day time
