Taking a snooze in the office may seem impossible, but this sling lets you sneak in forty winks whenever you like.
If you find yourself feeling sleepy throughout the day, this new invention is about to change your life.
Office equipment brand Uplift Desk has created the brand new Under Desk Hammock that lets you take a nap on your lunch break.
The super-comfy sling, which costs $55, clips beneath one of their unique standing tables to make an instant sleep station for workers who fancy an afternoon snooze.

It's really easy to assemble too – ideal when you're tired and have no patience for DIY.
Just attach the innovative blue or grey lounger to an UPLIFT V2 Standing Desk and relax with an eye mask or some headphones.
It's been designed especially to fit the company's bespoke products though, so don't order one then try hanging it off the random screws poking out your current one.

Uplift Desk explained what makes this hammock so special, writing on its website: "Impress your coworkers and friends with this unique conversation piece.
"Quickly clip the hammock onto the sturdy UPLIFT V2 Frame using the included carabiners—and remove it just as quickly.
"No need to drill any holes; just install two anchor plates on the frame using our patent-pending mounting points."

You can even use the brand's 'Connect' mobile app to change the height of the hammock so it's simple to climb in and out of – even if you're wearing a skirt or suit.
So, the next time you have a 121 with your boss, why not suggest this tidy and efficient way to nap?
It's a whole lot cheaper than investing in sleep pods and can transform your wellbeing with just a few lunchtime snoozes.
