 Did you know, the inventor of the swivel chair just so happens to be the 3rd president of the United States? That's right, Thomas Jefferson was the man behind the chair commonly used in offices and meeting rooms. It was also recorded that during Washington's presidency, there were fiery debates and insults exchanged especially between Secretary Hamilton and Secretary Jefferson. 




A visit to Monticello.

Jefferson: Hamilton I am done talking to you. Please leave my office.

Hamilton: Jefferson you are being unreasonable-

Jefferson: I said this meeting is over.

And with that, Jefferson scooted away on his swivel chair while giving Hamilton the skink eye. Leaving the Secretary staring at him while thinking of ten top ways to kill a man. You could imagine how frustrating their arguments could be like when Jefferson could just take a spin on his chair and avoid looking at the man he hated most at the time.
