Fidget Jan 9, 2014

I have been working as a translator for thirty years, sitting in front of the computer most of the time. I had a thorough health check about a year ago and my back was found to be in very good condition. When I asked why, the nurse/assistant or whatever said I fidget a lot - I keep changing position on my chair. So: there's the answer: FIDGET!!!

An alternative for those who don't fidget is... Jan 9, 2014

...to work standing on your head or laying on your side (synchronising the position of the computer with respect to yours).

Chair is our enemy. Bed is not.
