We all get them, or most of us do.  What do you do to combat them and WAKE UP?

Just now I took an energy boost herbal stuff along with a triple-shot Starbucks Latte.  I could SO do a nap right now, but not here at work obviously and I need to sharpen up so I can finish some SQL scripting....

20 minute power nap. Once I'm home of course.

Ice tea or ice coffee. A little caffeine usually does the trick.smile

I get up and take a brisk walk. Wakes me up and I get away from my desk for a bit.

I try to get moving.

And if that just doesn't work, I take a nap.

Usually I will find a safe place to park, and set an alarm for 15 minutes. Or, at home, take a nap.

My father used to fall asleep EVERYWHERE. Stop signs, red lights, sitting in a chair. I don't remember him falling asleep while walking up or down stairs.

I never have a problem with afternoon sleepies. Maybe because I get a good 8 hours every night. And I don't drink caffeine, so there's no rush to come down from.
