I'd probably get fired. Not because I'd used it at all, but because I would stand next to it and watch everyone play in it all day and not do anything.

No, I would not like a ball-pit in my workplace. There are many reasons for this:

1) The pit would be ridiculous to clean. Children will probably piss and puke all over and considering I'm on the lowest rung of the ladder, it would be my job to clean it up.

2) My workplace already has a lot of children running around at any given time. The pit would only attract more.

3) The balls would get everywhere. I'm a pretty clumsy person so I'd bet that I'd slip on them pretty often, especially when carrying something heavy or fragile. I really don't want to get injured right now and I especially don't want to ruin something valuable and/or important.

And most importantly:

4) I currently do not have a girlfriend to f-ck in it. That's the only reason I'd want access to a ball-pit: to mimic the XKCD comic.

I'd stick all the screaming children and teenagers who always look shifty in a ball pit if we had one. You! Are you being stupidly annoying? Get in the PIT!

I'd use a ball pit for naps, but we've got a already got a super comfy futon in the staff room, so no real need.

Have you any idea how many germs there are on your keyboard? On the air you're breating right now? In your hands?

If your immune system works, germs are no problem.

YYEEESSSSS! But to appropriately fill a pit 5 feet long 5 feet wide
and 3 feet tell would cost about 700$ not including
the cost of the pit its self :(

the good news is that you would get 10$ off when buying from toysRus

Well, after seeing the MMA Guy Flips Out On Game Developer thread and the posts in it, I decided to help rasmusernst by creating a seperate thread about the distracting ball pit. So, would you want one in your work place?
THANK YOU! THANK YOU! THANK YOU!

The kids are still posting stuff about ball-pits in my post.

I remember reading that public ball pits are one of the most dangerous places.

Besides all the garbage and rotting food in the bottom you cant see; they're full of hypodermic needles, condoms, pee, feces & all kinds of nasty stuff.

Germophobia aside, ball pits are just much too AWESOME to pass. It would keep the shrieking kids in the grocery store where I work occupied.

good point haha kids scream when i touch the cart so maybe i shouldn't have kids but idk man it seems sketchy
