A man is confronting another man. But he is still in his bed.
The bed is upright and the man is wearing it.
Why didn't he get out of bed?
And where was the outrage over Alan's standing desk?

The man has designed a "sleeping desk", which allows him to sleep at work --- he makes the comparison to a standing desk, claiming that if a standing desk is allowed, so should his sleeping desk. The boss is unhappy because, unlike with standing, if one is sleeping they are unconscious and unable to do work. It's funny because it's a clever way of trying to get out of doing work.
