GEORGE: Jerry, look at my eyes.
JERRY: A little less beady today.
GEORGE: Because I'm REFRESHED. I finally found a way to sleep in my office. Under the desk. I lie on my back. I tuck in the chair. I'm invisible.

Man Napping is the Civilian Equivalent of the Forced Rest, that is taking a nap when it is necessary or not so, to forcefully recharge your batteries. This is generally ordered by the NCOs or Officers in your Platoon, Flight or Division.
Can be a restful and recuperative thing...
