Proper ergonomics are important, but a fancy chair doesn't give the body the movement it needs. I'll take a cheap stool to rest for a bit. <br><br>Thanks for your input, Leah.

Those are some shocking statistics and research results. I sit for up to eight hours a day at my work-from-home desk and my desk (and my chair) are not even ergonomically correct. My mom (and business colleague) has been telling me for years that if I'd invest in a better desk and chair my back and head would hurt less. Maybe mom is right, eh? <br><br> like the idea of standing at my desk. My whole life, until 2004, I worked jobs that required I stand and walk around a lot and, while I was physically tired at the end of my shift, I did feel better. It's funny because my daughter actually said she wished she could stand up at her computer and she wished her easel was the kind that stood instead of sat on the table. Food for thought indeed.
