Time for a new way of life at work
FRANCE 24 visited Google's Parisian office and its games room where employees come to have a break or a nap. Relaxation is the key to productivity at this company, but it's still a novel idea for the French workplace.

sleep at work
well, my father always said: "the french have a great life", and well, this is so so true. no wonder usa is in its worse economic crisis - whereas, eu et canada are no where near the 'same struggles' economically - probably cause, in europe, the attitude is more personable, and in usa, it is all about greed! in the end, 'personal being' will always 'win over' greed - thus, the next proof of this, is 'usa healthcare' - in usa, they always speak so poorly of the 'eu/socialist way' - whereas, in eu, its the best way, and usa knows it! but will never do it, cause they support GREED of insurance companies! hahaha!
Sleeping at work!!!!!
This is how i see the french sleep more than any other nation in the world on a daily basis.God bless
Very similiar to kindergarten
I do recall such a mandatory imposed nap time in kindergarten, after which we received our choice of 6 ounces of either cranberry or grape juice, covered in aluminum foil to be poked with a straw. I don't recall ever having been anymore productive in class after all this break time. Just give all the employees Adderall if you want productivity.
