When we thought we had seen everything, someone has had the brilliant idea of inventing a toilet designed to increase worker productivity that has surprised the whole world. Some companies report that their employees waste too much time in the bathroom, so they are sure to be interested in welcoming this toilet into their facilities.
The “productive” toilet
The so-called “productive” toilet is not very different from a toilet like the one we all know. It only has one detail that makes it much more uncomfortable: instead of sitting 90 degrees off the ground, like a regular seat, it’s angled downwards 13 degrees.
This ensures that you have to sit on it with all your body weight on your thighs. Without a doubt, a very uncomfortable position that prevents workers from sitting in it for more than five minutes.
The tilted toilet proposal is not new. What’s more, in 2019 it was born in the United Kingdom by the hand of Mahabir Gill, who baptized it with the name of ‘Standard Toilet’. Speaking to the ‘BBC’, he said that the idea had come to him on a road trip, when he wanted to go to a bathroom but there was a huge queue.
In the US they have developed a tilted toilet to prevent you from spending more than 5 minutes in it and thus make “workers more productive”. Capitalism robs you until shit time. pic.twitter.com/Z0a5IKONQB

As expected, the reactions in the social network have not been long in coming. There are opinions for all tastes, but most are negative towards the “productive” toilet, and there are even those who consider it to be “torture at work”.
It was in the year 1775 when Alexander Cummings patented the modern toilet, which incorporated a siphon in the drain. Since then, this element has evolved a lot. Will the inclined toilet now triumph in companies to increase the productivity of their workers?
