In the modern society,the competition has become more and more fiercely,so many people have to spend more time on working,even till the mid-night or nightlong.they do not have enough sleep. In the daytime,they will feel tired and sleepy,they need to have a siesta.maybe some of them do not have chance to have a rest,it is so cruel. Do you want to have a rest in the day time,and have a siesta in the noon. I always take it,what about you?

I work from midnight to 8am. In my line of work, we are there 24 hours a day to protect & serve. I do sleep in the day, but it doesn't ever really feel like I've gotten enough sleep. I should be sleeping now, but I am trying to call the vet for my dog !! It is hard to get enough sleep now. Work is very demanding on people, plus add kids and a family life. And sleep is what gets cut shorter and shorter all the time.

I rarely take a nap during the day. My husband seems to sleep a lot on the week-ends. I have read that some studies have shown that we should take afternoon naps. I know when I was working years ago, I would get tired and sleepy around 2:30 in the afternoon.

I sleep in the night. But sleeping at any other time is something I hate to do. Not that I have never done it. Sometimes I have fallen asleep during day time. But I never make it a habit. It is valuable time that I can use to go to the library, an exibition or the shopping mall. I will not waste it for a siesta.

My favorite thing is to sleep, but I like napping, but work relations, not to nap, so I would get tired and sleepy around 2:00 in the afternoon.

I do not nap in the day. I sleep well at night and save my tiredness for bed at that hour. I pace myself throughout the day and so therefore can make the most of my time. Naps do not do a world of good for me. Not sure if the studies are truly done in the proper way. Men are more likely to nap and that is not something I am glad of.

i often take a siesta in the daytime as i find it hard to sleep at regular hours and go out a lot or work during different times so i find sometimes just sleeping for a couple of hours in the day helps to recharge my energy and feel better better than when i get a bad nights sleep. i dont sleep during the day every day but sometimes when i feel tired

I'd like to. But as a senior high school student, it is impossible for me. However, I sometimes sleep in the class when I really feel very tired. Haw-haw. I am envious of you. Alas! When can I have a siesta?
