So, as you sleep less, not only do you perform less work, tasks you do accomplish are of a lower quality than they would be if you had a good nights sleep. Furthermore, these same people will sacrifice sleep in if they believe they can accomplish more. This is not only dangerous, but is counterproductive. When you come home from work, dragging your feet like a hurt puppy dog, the TV is the first place the majority of Americans plop down. However, the best remedy for a hard day at work is not to flop down in front the tube like a slug, but to get some sleep.
Sleep is good.
Not a waste of time. However, too many people attempt to make up their entire sleep deficit on the weekends. This practice is not healthy. The body needs a constant amount of sleep every night. Furthermore, you not only need adequate sleep to perform well in the workplace, but also to enjoy life.
