I also drive a desk , my back got to be an issue sitting , now I stand , been standing 9 years back has been better standing than it had been for a bunch of years sitting.


I worked with a guy, now retired, who had two desks. He had one computer but set it up with two monitors, two keyboards, and two mice. He would sit for a while at his regular desk and then turn around and stand at his standing desk for a while. He probably shifted from one position to the other two dozen times during the day. At the time I thought it was silly. I'm starting to see the wisdom.


I have a rubber mat I stand on the desk is about even with my sternum for height.
I have a padded stool to sit on when I want to sit
I lean on my desk a fair amount during the day

the warning is it's gonna make you really tired for about 2 weeks getting used to it

the latest car project is running new brake lines on my sons 88 s-10 I tell him what needs to be done and get parts , then when he gets good and frustrated I do what ever he had been fighting with in a few minutes then stand back again.

the learning works better that way.

he is 17 and in 2 days he has gone from never making a double flair brake line to getting rather good at the flair, not as good about remembering to put the fitting on before he makes the flare , but he is getting better at that also after having to cut his flairs off and start over a few times.

America only has one issue, we have a Responsibility crisis and everything else stems from it.
