How many OTers use a standing desk?

and how long did it take you to get used to it? I'm trying the stand up method, and it feels pretty strange at first.

You stand up all day?

i would, but the government would never buy into this hipster trend.

No. It's a tall desk with bar stools.

Donald Rumsfeld uses one. That's the extent of my knowledge on standing desks.

i thought the reason i got a desk job... was to sit on my butt all day at the desk

Some people in my office cycle through the one that we have. I think it just looks odd but I guess it is good for you

Thought about it. I have a few coworkers who have switched and like it. Make sure you get an anti-fatigue mat

Sounds awful.
I'm constantly contortioning my body to get cozy at my desk.. Indian style, one leg up, propped up on my CPU, etc.

I do. Takes some getting used to.
You need comfortable dress shoes like cole Haan with the nike air in the heel and a gel pad to stand on.
I have the muvman stool to take the pressure off my feet periodically during the day.
My desk raises and lowers electronically so I can adjust if I'm standing up, taking a break on the stool thingy or decide to sit.
Overall I like it better than sitting all day especially since I'll be doing this until I retire.
Any questions let me know.

My dad does this. Says it helps his back. I think it's weird.

I had an old hippy coworker (Geologist) that would do the standing desk and the core ball thing
I've never tried it though

I was going to stop you... until I read the gel pad addition. My Cole Haans are probably the most uncomfortable shoes I own with their whole "Nike Air" bullshite!

Standing desks are for poors

Have been thinking about getting one. Sitting all day is bad for you.
