\"\"The StandardToilet<\/a> company has a new type of toilet with a seat that slants forward to prevent workers from taking longer-than-necessary bathroom breaks.<\/p>\n

It’s on a 13-degree slope so some of your weight is on your legs, and you literally can’t sit there for too long.<\/p>\n

They say your legs should start getting tired after about five minutes. It’s supposed to mimic what you do during a squat thrust. So if you’re out of shape, you might find yourself in trouble.<\/p>\n

They also claim it’s good for your posture and puts you in a better position to do your business. But even if that’s true, the main selling point is it gets people back to work as fast as possible.<\/p>\n

They cost between $200 and $650 depending on features. And they might be selling a model with an even steeper slope. Their website mentions one with a thirty-five degree tilt.<\/p>\n
