Covert Workplace Napping Pillows

This Binder-Shaped Pillow Helps Employees Secretly Sleep at Work

— November 20, 2013 — Art & Design
The 'Power Nap' pillow by Donkey Creative Lab is an inconspicuous tool to help you grab some sleep at work or school. The pillow is shaped just like a binder and if it was tucked away with a shelf of other black binders, it might just be convincing enough to fool your employer or your teacher. Since it's so soft an enticing, it's definitely a better place to rest your head than falling asleep on a keyboard.

The covert napping tool seems a little silly, but if you're in between coffees and need a short power nap, it's not a bad option for helping you to catch a few Z's. This would be a hilarious gag gift for workaholics prone to working themselves to exhaustion.
