I hate the "accidentally left my pants at home" type of work dreams.

The supposed meanings of naked dreams are interesting. Being naked in a dream can generally mean a subconscious fear of having a secret exposed. Being naked at school or work can mean concern about not being prepared or qualified for a project. Being proud of one's nudity can mean confidence in what one has to offer, or worry about drawing the wrong kind of attention to oneself.

In my case it's probably a deep seated feeling that my job is so straightforward that almost anyone could do it. Like everyone else has all these hard skills and I'm doing stuff that my 11 year old daughter could figure out in half an hour. At s ok me level I know that making stuff look and sound easy is what I'm supposed to be doing but still....

When I'm the only business analyst on a team I always feel superfluous. When I've got a few other BAs working with me I feel like master of the universe.

In my case it's probably insecurity about being so less connected. In my last position, I interacted with every single department, so I was heavily networked. I still have people, and building good relationships, but some of them are external, and it's different because I feel like I rely on more people than I have people who rely on me.

I can't remember the last time I had a dream and actually remembered it. 

It's very rare for me to remember them too. When I do remember, they are so extremely vivid, and unless they are absurd, I can confuse them with actual memories.

Hubert once told me I don't remember dreams because I get good uninterrupted REM sleep. That made sense. I don't sleep a lot, but when I do sleep, I sleep the sleep of the dead.

Maybe it's the same here. I don't sleep well, but when I do I'm OUT.

What about dreams that are nothing but still images? Mental Images projected from your mind and imprinted into your dream...

Have never heard of that. First reaction was to consider you are an artist, so it makes sense an artist might think in static image more than the average person, and thus dream as such. It might also mean you're not fully asleep.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hypnagogia

Individual images are typically fleeting and given to very rapid changes. They are said to differ from dreams proper in that hypnagogic imagery is usually static and lacking in narrative content

I hate the "looking for a toilet but can't find one" type of dreams.

Those dreams would probably be worse if you did find a toilet.

I dreamed a group of people were holding an elaborate day-long Alternity LARP at the university my father used to teach at. I slept in until 11:10, tragically, and missed a lot of clues that were caught by players who got there earlier. Then somebody solved the final challenge an hour or so later, and the whole thing closed down with me only just having started. I was terribly disappointed.

Okay, I'm prepared to close the competition early and declare this the funniest post of 2020.

Dreams of being late have the obvious interpretation of worry about missing out on opportunity. It can also be a symbol of a need or hope for change in life, so dreams of being late can mean the subconscious is reminding a person they already have green light to move forward with a change. So while on the conscious level one might still be mulling it over, subconsciously they've already made up their mind.

I don't need to dream of being late. I usually am in real life anyway.

I have weird dreams of being early. Of arriving at work at first light, something like 6 am, and the place being shuttered up. Of getting in and there being nobody around for hours.

Another one is being back at school, like I've gone back to repeat the last two years of high school so that I can get better marks for some reason. And realizing that I have somehow not attended any classes for key subjects and I am hopelessly lost.

Another one is being back at the house I lived in from the ages of about 10 thru 22. And finding out that one of the first cars I owned is still there (behind the garage) and still driveable, and I start driving that around. And it's weird because the car is so old and dusty and has an engine literally 5 times as big as the car I have now (5.8 litres, or 351 cubic inches, compared to 1.2 litres now).

Another one is going back and buying one of the 2 houses I grew up in, and the house being exactly the same as before, just a bit more wear and tear.

I also have "hybrid people" in my dreams. Like someone who is a mixture of 2 or 3 people who have been a key part of my life. Usually female.

I have a lot of dreams of wanting to go to the bathroom and finding nowhere to go or the toilets being removed or broken or absent.  And they are very vivid.  Takes me a moment to awake a realize that they are just a dream.  Of course, then I am awake and need to go to the bathroom!

I dreamt that I fell off of a Sky Scraper in a fancy car, and in the car was a celebrity from along time ago.... I think the guy's name was Little Richie?

Maybe "Little Richard" the pop and early rock singer pioneer?

I dreamed about graphically murdering my first boyfriend and his brother after a long chase where both of them and possibly their father too were violent manipulative psychopaths due to having fought with each other their whole lives.
