at my last office we had a dude that had narcolepsy. dude probably slept close to half the day. every half hour or so we would just hear snoring coming out of his office. i honestly have no idea how that dude keeps his job, but they laid me off.

I'm pretty sure he has sleep apnia too, because he said that they were trying to fit him with this oxygen mask to sleep in at night. 9/5/2008 9:07:02 AM |

ANSWER:
Quote : | "Work
People with narcolepsy can work in almost all types of jobs. It may be best if you have a flexible work schedule so you can take naps when needed. It also helps to have a job where you interact with your coworkers. Try to avoid jobs that require you to drive or have long commutes to work.
The Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) protects the employment rights of people who have disabilities, including narcolepsy. The ADA requires employers to reasonably accommodate the needs of their workers with disabilities. For workers with narcolepsy, these accommodations may include:
* Allowing short naps during the workday * Adjusting work schedules around sleepy periods * Alterations to the workspace or job duties
Workers must tell their employer that they have narcolepsy to get these accommodations.
Employers with more than 50 workers are also covered by the Family and Medical Leave Act. This law allows preapproved leave without pay to care for yourself or a family member with narcolepsy. The Social Security Disability Insurance or Supplemental Security Income programs may also help you if you cannot work due to your narcolepsy." |
