I work at a place with flex-hours, so I get 9 solid hours a night -- weekdays and weeknights. A long time ago when I had to leave home at 6:30 to get to work on time, I was constantly tired on eht weekdays. Now I always feel alert, its fantastic. And I think the quality of my work is better as a result. I think more places need to implement flex hours.
The longest I ever went without sleep was about 36 hours. It was delay after delay during air travel, and I can't sleep on planes or in airports. It was awful, never want to do that again.
