If you thought you were having a bad day, let's put things in perspective. 

One poor guy is currently freaking out because his boss caught him sleeping on the job. That boss? None other than Virgin founder Richard Branson, who found him taking a nap on the couch at exactly the wrong moment in time. 

Branson even posed for a photo with the unnamed Virgin Australia employee, an image that should fill any worker's stomach with dread.

"I popped into the office and the airport to say hello and check in to see what the team are up to. This guy wasn’t up to much at all –- I caught him sleeping on the job!" Branson wrote on the company's blog. "Wow, did he get a shock when I woke him up. He must have thought he was dreaming because he went straight back to sleep."

Totally busted. 

That is, until you hear the full story: "To be fair, he was on standby, getting some much needed rest," Branson added. 

Branson wins the greatest boss award yet again.
