San Francisco, CA -- The writing is on the wall for women in the workplace: They now have access to a ball-point pen that doubles as a vibrator.

Although the so-called "Vibra Pen" works just like a standard Mont Blanc style pen, the other end features a textured ball that vibrates when placed against an object.

The Babes In Toyland sex toy company is currently selling the buzzing ball-point for $22 a pop and spokeswoman Laura Weide claims it's already creating a buzz among females desperate to relieve job stress.

It's especially popular with secretaries and waitresses.

Now that may rub you the wrong way but Weide suggests not being so touchy since studies show that orgasms improve circulation and clear the mind "so that can only benefit on-the-job performance."
