Get shirty with new wearable office pillow

March 26, 2009

Here's a snazzy new invention for HR folk worried about how to squeeze the last drop of productivity out of their beleaguered workforce.

Why not play on the redundancy fears of your employees and reinforce the benefits of working late by issuing them this new plumped-up pillow shirt.

The brainchild of Polish product designer Maja Ganszyniec, the "pillows for working late" is a three-piece set including a tie, sleeve and collar, so no matter how staff fall asleep at your desk they will be comfortably cushioned.

If you can excuse the 1970s-style kipper tie, then it doesn't look too different from what your normal male office worker would wear every day. All we need now is for a female version to be designed and the workforce is covered.

And why just limit it to a shirt? Next up the fluffy trousers and trouser suit, and we will all start to look like the Stay Puft Marshmallow Man.
