Everyone who's ever worked in a modern office has experienced the pain. You sip your coffee,miley cyrus sex video read your emails, finally settle in and start being productive when that coworkerrolls up to your desk. You know, the one who either can't tell or doesn't care that you're in the middle of something (and if you don't know who that person is, well, then it's probably you).
Thanks to the miracle of modern technology, a new Chrome browser extension has your back.

Here's how it works: You download the extension, add your phone number, and when your coworker asks you if you're caught up on Fuller House, press the "nope button" on your browser.
The app then calls you.

The phone call doubles as an ad for their service, a fact which some will likely find a small price to pay for the out it provides.
