i work on a graveyard shift so i really battle out with sleepiness in the office. especially because i have to work with financial documents, in which i have to be very careful of. arrghh... i don't like working while sleepy i get lazy too but night shift is more convenient for me than 9am-5pm when there are so many people going to work that public vehicles seem to run out of, even lightrail trains are so filled with people, you'd feel suffocated when you're inside. and too many people running and walking is a sight i really can't enjoy and most of the times make me sick. night shift is also better than 2pm-10pm when going home force me to wait for hours for a bus.
by next week, i would have to work with another shift that is 6am-2pm, and this is the other shift that's more convenient for me but still has to battle out with sleepiness. i spend 2 hours of transporting from home to the office, so to be able to make at 6am i have to be out for a ride by 4am, which forces me to wake up by 2 or 3 early in the morning.
i am now used to working while being sleepy. good thing is i haven't had any content issues with our clients. i struggle hard just not to fall asleep and so to avoid content errors in their financial documents.

i usually drink coffee so that my eyes will still awake even i felt sleepy, i did this specially if i have many email notifications fro mylot that i need to respond my friends discussions. i am not lazy if we talk about online business, i really enjoy doing this stuff. i am addicted to post here.

It depends how tired I am. I usually just battle through it, have some energy drink or something and get through it, but last friday I was so run down that I nearly fell asleep whenever my head rested on anything, so I just spent the day doing nothing at home rather than typing up notes as I should have been, so I am doing that today to catch up.

I never do. Even if I'm cramming, I need enough sleep to produce quality work. If I'm really desperate, I grab coffee and something to eat to wake me up. If this doesn't work, I take a power nap. 30 minutes to an hour should be okay, but I find that I work best in the morning after getting real sleep. So there. I think you should maximize your time by sleeping a little later at night then waking up a little earlier in the morning. Don't pull an all-nighter if it isn't necessary.

i've tried many times but i wasn't that successful. suddenly i found myself typing something very irrelevant that even i could not understand. it seems like i've been dreaming already. and that's the time i quit working and get a proper sleep.

I prefer not to because I know I can't work at my best ability when I am tired, but there are occasions when I don't really have a choice and something as to be finished.

No, I don't work when I'm sleepy. You know why, 'coz I always have headache if I force myself to work. So, i'll sleep first then work.

Wow,I think that your said is wrong.
Although you are sleepy,your head is also working.
You said you are very lazy,because you has not realized your head power.It's a great power what can change your life.
Please make some efforts about it,or you will find a wonder.

I dont have a choice. But you can think of alternatives to defeat your sleepy eyes. Listen to rock/pop-rock/alternative music. Or you can also drink lots of water so you'll always feel like going to the bathroom. You can also do some stretching inside the cubicle. Yes, that's what I would do when I am very sleepy. It works most of the times. ('v')!
