Been standing at my #StandingDesk all morning, good coupla hours, & now my tired legs are asking me...

is it time?

{{desk lowered, seat resumed}}

Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh, yes, that's lovely, thank you.

Yet, as my daily pattern goes, in merely another coupla short hours, my bum & thighs will be asking

Oi, getting a bit sore here, time to be Up again, innit?

And verily, so it shall be.

On the right: the new #StandingDesk for my Mac Mini and #ProTools setup

I have a 10-key w/ mechanical switches on order so I can fully use the shortcuts. No speakers in here, but considering my environment I'm mostly working in headphones anyway here.

(As a bonus, it's on ethernet so I could stream games from my main desktop in the living room.)

@carnage4life I see it differenciated: Even if one doesn't use a (electrically adjustable) #StandingDesk at standing configuration, the benefit of easily adjustabke height, tilt and configureability with different seating options ranging from Pillow to Barstool and from Beanbag to Office Chair make them a big accessibility bonus.

  • Espechally as they increase compatibility with wheelchairs, strollers, walkers and other #accessibility gear

Not to mention that they make the use of offices with non-fixed seating comfortable.

Anyone have recommendations for a good #StandingDesk in a typical rectangular shape (not an L)? It’s for my wife.

Ideally they have their own website, or at least sell somewhere besides Amazon.

Hopefully a good amount of desk space with room to run two displays comfortably.

#StandingDesk

Recently switched to a standing desk, and I noticed that I get distracted/sidetracked way less often when standing.

I think it's because when I have to wait on something for a few seconds (maybe a 15 second build), instead of checking email/Slack and losing my flow state, I just pace for a few seconds and then get right back on task.

I got the standing desk for health reasons, but the improved focus is a big bonus!
