It's never a good idea to sleep on the job, especially if you're a thief. A Florida burglary suspect is facing charges after police found him asleep in the bedroom of a home he was allegedly trying to rob, reports CBS affiliate WTEV.

According to the Sarasota County Sheriff's Office Facebook page, a cleaning lady discovered Dion Davis on a bed inside the victim's home Monday.

Davis, 29, was snoozing next to a bag of jewelry he was allegedly planning to swipe even after deputies began snapping pictures of him.

They say he didn't even wake up when they started taking pictures.

He was passed out with a bag full of stolen jewellery next to him on the bed and didn't even notice the deputies taking pictures,' a police spokesman said.

He has been charged with burglary of an unoccupied dwelling.

"That must be one comfortable bed," said one commenter.

"This has to make dumbest criminals!" added another.
