CBers, how do you sit at your computer?

If you are experiencing wrist, back, shoulder or neck pain, this could be why!

Ah yes, ergonomics of the home workstation. Last year I wrote a 36 page Engineering paper on the ergonomic perspective of the home office/workstation. I evaluated more angles than you could think of, LOL... and how am I sitting now? With my knees up and me bent over my keyboard, LOL!!!

Serena, leaning back in your chair is actually really good from an Ergonomics perspective as the disc pressure on the spine is incredibly decreased. I'm sure this is going to bore everyone tremendously and this seems super geeky to throw in a graphic that I had used in my report but if you're curious, here's why:

I either sit to one side with one leg tucked under or with both legs tucked under criss-cross applesauce style.

I must sit so that Cali can sit on my lap. She always Disses with me.

At work...I am usually standing...neck hurts alot from looking down at the screen...at home...laptop is on the arm of the shoulder and my legs are curled up under me....so..either way...not good...oh well...I'm not stopping anytime soon either.
