I worked in a large warehouse with shelves big enough to hide in.. so I would regularly take naps of 1-2 hours.

EDIT: I was working the graveyard shift plus overtime, so it was 9pm-7am. Needless to say, the naps helped a lot.

probably an hour to 1.5

Edit: but this is during a crisis when I hit some downtime while rebuilding an array.

Worked in a all night pool hall for one summer, on wednesday nights I could get a good 6 hours in without anybody bothering me.

When I was an intern, I snuck into a room with old paper records and slept for two hours. I told the boss I was going to work on some y2k issues. Ah, youth

I never napped at work.
Some a my bosses have taken others out to lunch, then told them they could have a nap...a dirt nap. We never seen them again.

2-3 hours. I used to work at a locked sych facility and would help cover the noc ( overnight) shift. There were three of us and a nurse and we would take truns sleeping. 3 people...nine hours...3 hours each. It was sweet...you jsut had to be ready to jump up fast if something went down, which almost never happened.
