“Nap Boxes” Allow Workers to Sleep Standing Up
A company in Japan is working on “nap boxes” for offices . . . but you have to sleep standing up. They’re shaped like water heaters with a door on the front. There are little shelves inside to support your knees, head, and butt.

昼休みは、繭のような「仮眠ボックス」で立ったまま一休み――
そんな職場も出てくるかもしれません。
ボックス内には、頭やおしり、ひざなどが移動しないよう支持具を施してあるといいます。 pic.twitter.com/Vbfvab0c5v
You won’t be able to understand the video below (unless you speak Japanese) but this will give you a better idea of what they look like.
Jason the Joo's Top Jewish-themed gifts from Dave!
Jason the Joo's Top Jewish-themed gifts from Dave!
Honorable Mention – Menorah Socks
Not much more needs to be said. They are cozy, fuzzy socks with a Menorah on them. I can’t lie, they are comfortable and one of the gifts I’ve actually used!6. The Mensch on a Bench
The Mensch on a Bench is essentially the ‘Elf on the Shelf’ for Jewish folks and I was confused by this gift because I didn’t have a kid at the time. Maybe he had a premonition a few years ago that I would be needing it in the future, or his search history for all my Jewish gifts recommended it and he was running out of ideas.
5. Jerusalem Purse
This is one of the strangest presents I received from Dave. He claims it is a bag to use while grocery shopping but I think it’s 100% a handbag purse. Unfortunately for him, his money could have been better spent because it has never left my office.
4. Deck the Halls with Matzo Balls sweater
One year for Hanukkah Dave gave me a couple items to store in my office. First, A Deck the Halls with Matzo Balls sweater that could be used for an ugly sweater Holiday party.
3. Hannukah Shirt and Tie
Second, a long-sleeve bright yellow Menorah t-shirt that has a fake tie on it, like a Jewish Tuxedo t-shirt that I almost wore at my wedding but my wife Jessi wasn’t on board.
