No, that's not a nap. No way. That's a full-blown damn good night's sleep.

It's a nap because I said it was a nap. Therefore, it's a nap.

If you brush your teeth before and after the sleep, then it's not a nap. Any sleep without teeth brushage could be considered nappage.

Max nap time = 4 hours.

The book of rules says this.

What about time of day? If it's 4 in the morning, and one gets some rest and wakes up at 6 to go to work, is that a 2 hour nap? Or did he/she only get 2 hours of sleep?

You're waking up to start your day, right?

That's sleep.

What about sleeping on the job? Is that considered a nap?

I wasn't told the same thing when my supervisor once came over to me and said that the boss saw me sleeping and I had to give back the keys to the place and take my stuff and leave

Did you say "I was just resting my eyes some"?

NO, I didn't think so!

omg this thread has answered a question that has been plagueing me for a long time.

THANKS FOR IT.

Is an extended nap also considered sleep? what if you're napping and somebody wakes you up after two hours? if you sleep for another three hours is that then considered sleep? or is it two naps? or a post-nap/extended nap?

Now you can rest.

To nap or to sleep?

That's the question.

Hmmm... I would think that depends on how long you were awake inbetween naps. If somebody woke you up just to ask you a question, then you go straight back to sleep, you were woken up during a 5-hour sleep session. If you spent 15 minutes or something, to eat, or bang your g/f(or wife), that is definately two naps. One 2 hour nap, and one 3 hour nap afterwards.
