Tips on a Modified Standing Workstation

A youngish colleague of mine reports that she seldom sits down to work because she has hip problems and experiences swelling in the legs, ankles and feet. Her favourite seat (and many journalists would agree) is a bar stool.

She works at a bar-height counter, half sitting on the stool while standing on one foot. She says this solves her leg problems, and that she thinks it works because at least one leg is always stretched out. She also points out that the height of the seat is important; it has to be low enough that one foot comfortably reaches the ground. I think I may put this on my to-try list.

Now playing: "Oblivion" by Quartango.
