市長給員工購置'打盹椅'

Campbell Newman, mayor of Brisbane, Australia, approved the bill of "napping chairs" for his drivers as they have to work 12 hours each time, local media reported Wednesday. The chairs were said to be made "based on NASA technology." Some people say the chair should be available to any staff in the mayor's office, but suggest naps should not be longer than 20 minutes.(See photo)

據澳大利亞媒體4日報道，因其司機每次當班時間長達12小時，布里斯班市長坎貝爾·紐曼近日特別批款，為他們添置"打盹椅"。據悉，這種椅子是基于美國宇航局技術制造。有人認為，所有在市長辦公室中工作的員工都應該享受這種待遇，但打盹時間不能超過20分鐘。(見圖)
