Dreaming About Work?

Today we are going to start a series on dream interpretation for work place dreams.

If you dream about work, you are not alone, in a recent survey of 1,000 adults conducted by British bank NatWest, 80 percent of women and 60 percent of men said they dream about work. Even more surprisingly, 65 percent of women and 43 percent of men reported waking up in a cold sweat, worried about their jobs! Fully 25 percent experience those nightmares once a week or more.

The researchers asked participants what their work-related dreams were specifically about. Here are the responses they received in order of frequency:

• Arguing with your boss.
• Being late missing an important meeting.
• Lusting after a colleague.
• Having to make an unexpected presentation.
• Going to work naked.
• Losing all their files in a fatal computer crash.
• Getting fired.
• Killing the boss.

Over the next few days we'll look at what each of these common dreams about work may represent.
