Can't seem to get ergonomics right.

Ouch.

Ergo-what?

Ergonomics. It's... gah, I don't know how to explain it. Time to pull out the handydandy electronic dictionary: "The applied science of equipment design, as for the workplace, intended to maximize productivity by reducing operator fatigue and discomfort."

So, basically, working at my desk hurts. ):

.... oh, why didn't you just say that?

Go out for a walk or something.

I didn't say that because I only have six words! (:

And I will.. In an hour. Can't take my break until my boss does, because when he's away from his desk, it's okay for me to be away from mine. I guess. It kinda makes sense.

Also I think it's going to rain and I'm in heels. Bugger.

"Basically, working at my desk hurts." <- there

That's kinda crappy. What do you do?

Oh, shoot. Okay, you win.

I'm a secretary/receptionist/admin assistant/whatever. My boss is kinda a big deal in Seattle, and we have a really fancy office and everything, but I'm BASICALLY chained to my desk. (At least the kitchen/coffee pot is only a few feet away. (: )
