Do you do more of sitting or standing at work?

As a programmer I have to sit for 8 hours (work from home) and on top of all of it I actually spend my free time on computer doing something else. So yeah, it's not good for my health 😀
But I would like to spend time outside as much as possible however others also work and can't quite do that.

Not only being productive, you will also last longer in health and mental being. Being uncomfortable while working will bring more sadness and sluggish attitude while working.

I can't understand why some business establishments wouldn't put it more efforts in giving their workers a better working environment? This when it's provided for, makes business to go smoothly.

Some companies just need their own pockets. They don't care about the employees. That's why I used to tell people not to overwork themselves because everybody is replaceable.

This is a fact. If you're in good health, you will always have more propensity to deliver better in your job.

True. Never try killing yourself for any business because they will never value you. They will replace you immediately you can't deliver for them again.

And the truth of the matter is that there are more people out there praying that you lose that job which some employers always use it as an advantage to do whatever they like.

I will always pray that God will make a way for most employees. Most of them are seeing hell at their workplace, and it is never really fair on them. I wouldn't want to work at a place where I don't get the right support from the employer.
 
My sitting posture is the worst.

I sit on an L shaped couch, on the L side with my feet up. I'm in this position for many hours.

That said, I stretch my legs so that they don't lock up, and I also do 3 mile walks/runs every two days, and 1-2 days of leg workouts a week. I hope that balances things out...

Some people are slaves at their workplaces. I know quite a few guys in such situations but they can't help it because they are held hostage at work.

Not employer gives support rather they want to take the little support you are getting from customers. I pray that all employees can get things that will give them rest and also touch the employers to be humane for once.

Touching, whether physical or emotional, is a no-go in today's work culture. It could lead to an HR complaint or even being fired for inappropriate behavior.

When that left the workforce, it made it feel dead.

I could often compliment a female and not feel worry, but then things shifted with assault training and easier reporting, and females took advantage of that for career growth. It was at that time that I kept my physical/emotional distance from both men and women, because men would also report it as Don't Ask, Don't Tell was repealed and some would report "unwanted" interactions for growth too.

There are no friends at your workplace. Some of the people working with you are plotting for you to be sacked for them to take your position as well. It's a crazy world we live in.

It's a crazy world indeed. That's some people's daily prayer with some touch of gossip. People will whine you but don't panic😂.
 
I kind of want to invest in a desk. Sitting on this L-shape portion of my couch all day doesn't seem too healthy.

If I do get a desk, it's going to be one that lifts so that I can sit and then stand, going back and forth throughout the day.

I stretch my legs so that the tendons don't get too tight being in this position, but I don't know if that's enough.
