OK, so we’ve got a recession. You can’t get a mortgage. House prices are crashing. Your job’s on the line. So, apart from stealing supplies from the stationery cupboard what can we do to liven things up a little?

We can waste time.

Yes, things may be grey but we can still do our best to avoid anything that looks like real work and instead devote our energies to having a laugh with the latest office gadgets and gizmos. Of course, you don’t want to get caught in the process of actually enjoying yourself at work, so try these workplace-friendly desktop gadgets on for size.

Dirty Office? You need a desktop vacuum

A tidy desk is a sign of a tidy mind. Or a bored one. Either way, you can impress your boss with your spotless attention to detail and waste endless potentially productive working hours with your very own Henry the Desktop Vacuum.

You’ll probably be crumbling your biscuits all over the place just to have an excuse to whip out this cute little guy. And once you’re finished with your desk, there’s an entire filthy office to tackle. In fact, office cleanliness is so important that your miniature Hoovering friend might just be tax deductible.*

Video game, what video game? Hide all incriminating evidence with your very own USB Panic Button.

Your boss sees a determined employee in intense concentration over the latest company sales reports. You see the Big Boss at the end of level three who is determined to take your last life points.

Keep it that way with a giant red USB Panic Button or a Stealth Switch- set to hide your time wasting intentions and display harmless looking spreadsheets whenever the boos takes a little too much interest.

Who wants a boring grey mouse when you can have a Street Mouse?

You’ll need to keep the car engine noises to a minimum as you take your new firecracker red optical Street Mouse out for a test drive.

And if that just isn’t flash enough, try the wireless TVR Tuscan Street Mouse on for size. No wires, a sleek black finish and it’ll actually help you work too. Perfect. So long as you can keep it on the desktop and not ‘zooming’ down the office corridor.

* Note: It isn’t.
