Default Don't care that you are hated at work? Then sleep snugly at your work desk with...





You are looking at a product called "The Ostrich." Although it looks like it could be a super-comfy chefs hat or an adorable sex toy, it is actually neither. So what the hell is that?
The Ostrich is a sleep-aid for individuals who need to get some shut-eye at work.
You simply crawl into the discreet, womb-like enclosure head first and then slip your hands in the side pockets for warmth and zonk out because it seems like your air supply is cut off within minutes.
I am guessing that co-workers then take turns interrupting your sacred little nap by punching you in the back of your dumb skull.

Oh, this product is definitely not for you Aussies if you have no air conditioned office

I sleep like real men do: with the head on the arms or table.
If time allows me to do so, I try to take a nap in the early afternoon. 15-20 minutes are enough to recharge the batteries and have enough power for the rest of the day.

A good short power nap in the afternoon would increase productivity in many workers. I wished our culture allowed it.

I think it's better than loads of caffine.
