Shows techniques like how to use various phones (cell phone, desk speaker phone, VOIP) to mask your siesta. Shows proper head support techniques to keep your face from getting QWERTY cheek marks. The last class covers how to wake up and keep pulling on your hair and looking stressed to explain the matted hair and red eyes. This is a special 4 hour course, since half the time is spent practicing napping in a desk chair. You could also include:

There would be plenty of room in such a course for all of these topics PLUS helpful maxims, like my husband's favorite, "Never put all your eggs in one pencil."

This course also includes how to make presentations that make it look like you're not behind and how to throw your employees under the bus. 2) How to hire family friends that are incompetent and then make everyone else work harder to cover up for the fact that the people you hired are useless. Also includes how to convince your superiors that everyone complaining about said useless employees are in fact wrong. You could always do one of the two currently affecting my workplace.
