American culture around work honestly seems completely fucking nuts.
This was in the UK. I lived on one side of the city right next to a motoroway where it was too loud to sleep and I had no internet. My workplace was on the other of the city. On a rainy night, I didn't always fancy cycling that distance just to get home for 3 hours of subpar sleep. Sleeping a half-decent 6-7 hours under my desk and then showering the next morning was much easier.
