metronap

When I first saw it I thought, it was fad-freaky Toyko or perhaps fashionably trendy LA, but it's NYC.Let's see... Walk several blocks possibly through a mucking huge park, or park in a expensive pay lot, or take a bus/train/taxi take an elevator to the umpteenth floor of the Empire State Building to take a 25 minute MetroNap in a overgrown egg chair during your lunch hour. Not to mention paying what ever it took to get you there you'll shell out $13 more to take a nap. And no, that's NOT with the optional lunch, or even in a private cubicle. City folk, more money than sense. What ever happend to sleeping under your desk? If it's good enough for George Castanaza, it's good enough for me!

So... you think it's not worth it, then?

$13 for a half hour nap without any privacy? Um no, I don't think its worth it.

They sure look like comfortable chairs. However, I couldn't fall asleep on my back. Nor could I go somewhere, fall asleep, and wake 25 minutes later and feel rested. It takes me about 2 hours to fall asleep so unless it's also a time machine...

They sure do look like comfortable chairs, though.

The trunk of my car always worked great for me.
