    This has deep vein thrombosis / pulmonary embolism written all over it.

    Basically blood doesn’t circulate in the lower extremities because of the distance from the heart - when it stagnates for too long it starts to clot.

    Then a chunk of the clot breaks off, follows larger and larger veins until it gets to the heart, gets sent smaller vessels in the lungs until it can’t fit and becomes lodged.

    Really should sleep horizontally.

    If you ever actually use one, though? Fired.

    This is the same bullshit as the pool table in the break room, they’ll talk it up to get you hired but once you’re on the payroll if you’re ever seen interacting with it you’ll be reprimanded and told to get back to work.

    At least with the pool table version you could still arguably be interacting with coworkers, talking through a problem or something. But sleeping during office hours? Yeah, no way in hell, that’s lost productivity.

    After office hours people will just sleep under their desk like they’ve been doing for decades in Japan.

    Sleeping at work aside, I do really like the concept. As someone who sleeps face-down, that looks pretty cozy. If an airline ever replaced seats with something like that, I’d have no qualms about flying across the world and back.
