How to stay awake at work

Some days I have trouble staying awake at work in the early afternoon. I have tried ice water, sugar, getting up & walking around to get the blood flowing & shake off the sleepy urge. Those approaches keep me alert for a temporary basis as after 15 - 20 minutes I'm tired again. Some days you need something that will realy grab you and wake you up.

One day I took a minature bottle of Tabasco sauce into work as a gag. I started using it with my lunch after a few days and a week later I just started trying some when I feel tired. There is nothing in the world like raw Tabasco saunce to wake you up. The lesson learned is anything that hurts will keep you awake. Nothing hurts like a shot of Tabasco saunce on your tongue!
