Re: Is Your Computer Killing You? Ten ways computing can hurt you...
The only ache or pain I get is sore stiff legs from an extra 15 pounds being put on them when I sti at the computer and not being able to move them - that's my cat who when I am at my computer demands that I put my legs up on a stool so that he can jump on them and sleep - and guess who's on them right now, my 15 pound furball.
Other than that my chair, desk and computer is all ergonomically correct as my DH was the First Aid attendant at his work which included him getting trained to be also the ergonomically correct man so I got a free lesson on how my office should be set up whether I wanted that lesson or not. |
