standing desk

Unfortunately that isn't an option, we get what we get. We're lucky when we get a new chair. We've been using a broken chair at one of the schools for most of the school year, supposedly a new one has been ordered, I'll believe it when I put my behind in it.

I have the Realspace® Magellan Pneumatic Stand-Up Height-Adjustable Desk from Office Depot and I love it because it is EASY to raise and lower and provides a large workspace for me. I love that there is quite a range for the height of the desk to change things up a bit throughout the day. I also got a 'wobble stool' that raises and lowers, thinking it would give me a way to lean/rest, but it's not ideal because when I do want to occasionally sit, it's because I've tired from standing and walking around all day. Sometimes I borrow a tall chair from our tall lobby table and now I really wish I had just gotten a barstool/tall dining chair. In case you are wondering why not a regular chair, it's because I'd probably end up sitting more than standing but with a barstool/tall chair, it's like a subliminal message that 'this chair is just for a short rest not your booty's new home to grow' ?.

I bought my own. Found one for $100. I actually bought my own chair too because I was tired of being stabbed in the butt by the broken one I had and I was constantly told that there were no spare chairs to give me. BUT, it worked out because I have the cushiest chair in all of the school and if I leave, I can take them with me.
