The dangers of an office job...

It was actually my chair at home. If someone comes to steal my stuff my chairs will be the least of my worries :laugh:

My bicycle is fine. I've been cycling for a longer time, but my chair changed recently :)

Phew! I do hope they have showers in your office... X|

Bad command or file name. Bad, bad command! Sit! Stay! Staaaay...

[Sander Rossel]

They don't, but I'm not sweaty :)

Alright, you got me... It's actually my strategy to get more work done during the day. As soon as someone enters my office they get this weird look on their face, turn around and make a run for the bathroom. My daily interruptions are at an all time low and my productivity is soaring. I plan to take the car to work one of these days so my boss can enter my office and promote me for my superior productivity :D

My goodness man, what are you going to do when the zombies invade, the meteor strike happens, ISIS hits your office, followed by the Imamah and then Cthulhu, and then a sharknado, and another Sol Nemisis pass through the Oort cloud. You'd be so scr...d. To heck with the comfy share go lift some iron, get in shape for the coming catastrophes.

Rage against the narrative.

That was my first thought but I live in the tropics and work in an "open plan" bench type set up.

Yoga. Forward and backward bending postures. Of course, not by reading a book, or watching a video. But, with the guidance of a guru. Sadly, may be difficult to find a good yoga guru near your place, who doesn't charge (exorbitantly?). My guru in Bangalore taught for free. For about forty years (1968 onward). Not much publicity. Fortunate indeed to come across such a guru. - Six months of basic yoga (posture and breathing - asana and pranayama). - Six more months of simple meditation. - Six further months on a little more advanced meditation. I've attended the basic course about three to four times in my life - starting from 1981 (free, isn't it). And the advanced courses twice. No back problems till now, in spite of a sitting job, maybe a similar (or worse) kind of a chair like yours.

In that case it's also a great strategy to get your private office ;)

I have some friends who practice yoga. I could ask for some advice... Not sure if there's any teachers around here.

This is a brilliant observation.

Good suggestion, I'll put it in practice ASAP - also it is 42 km from home to work, should work pretty fast!

Women. Don't forget women. They all want to be the one that leaves you standing on a railway platform in Paris with a silly expression on your face because you can't understand why your guts just got ripped out.....play it....you played it for her, you can play it for me....and when you finally acknowledge their veil dance, they report you to personnel. Steer clear. :sigh:

http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/magazine-26937454[^] Just because you do plenty of exercise, don't think that compensates completely for sitting 8 hours a day! It does help of course, but you need to get up, take a walk. Work standing some of the time, and sitting at other times. Change things around a bit. A bad back is pretty minor compared to some of the things you can get by sitting all day... like SO many of us do!
