新入りが職場で居眠りしたら、怒る前にこれをやってみよう
新しい職場での初日は、一日中緊張する。
ところが「オレンジデューク」というRedditユーザーの男性は、ある企業でのインターン初日にデスクで寝てしまった…Orz…。
これに気付いたある社員が、ただ起こしては面白くないとこんな写真を撮った。
目覚めて写真に気付いたオレンジデューク。恥ずかしかったがあまりに面白かったのでRedditに投稿した。
その結果、ただでさえ面白い写真がとんでもないことになってしまった。
投稿された途端、写真は「PSバトル」という人気スレッドでいじられ始めたのだ。PSバトルはフォトショップ・バトルの略で、ユーザーたちが写真を加工し投稿する。
職場で居眠りをしたオレンジデュークは……。

ポール・マッカートニーになったり
ボブ・マーリーTシャツになったり
大勢のニコラス・ケイジに取り囲まれたり
マッチョ男になったりした。
実を言うとこのオレンジデューク(本人も会社も匿名を希望)、居眠りしたにも関わらずクビにならなかった。現在インターン3日目の彼には、居眠りするだけの正当な理由があった。
「顔色を見てもらえばわかると思うんですが、僕は貧血なんです。そのせいですっごく眠くなるんですよ」とオレンジデュークは理由を述べている。
レイア姫風ビキニ美女に囲まれたり
カートマン化したり
ドナルド・トランプになったり
Xファイルの主演女優、ジリアン・アンダーソンのことで頭が一杯になったりもしている。
仮眠を取ると、疲労が回復し生産性が上がるということが研究からわかっている。居眠りに理解のあるこの企業は、きっと今後成長していくだろう(ただし、勝手にネットに写真を投稿するのはもちろんダメだけど)。
