Sleepoholics Unite
I guess if you don’t get sleep, you will end up drunk. Hmm…
Studies show that someone who has been awake for 24 hours has the same mental acuity as a person with a blood-alcohol level of 0.1, which is above the legal limit for driving in most states. That means an executive who is up all night worrying about the quarterly earnings report — or worse, a hospital resident who takes over in a late-night emergency — is about as sharp as a light drinker who suddenly downs four margaritas.
So does that mean that if I down four margaritas, having slept well the night before, I can go straight to work and it’s only as if I lost a couple of hours of sleep?
Well, I know one thing for sure. I once drove from Flagstaff to Atlanta without stopping. 33 plus hours and by the time I crossed the Tenn./ Ga. border I felt like I was a hell of a lot drunker than 0. fucking 1! And god knows I’ve had a couple of beers before work before. I think I prefer the latter rather than the former.
