I'm a web developer working from home, this means I get to do whatever I want with my home office! so after reading a lot about health issues caused by sitting on your ass the whole day I decided to try a standing desk. Yet I really don't know if it will work for me, from what I've read it can greatly help you to avoid some of the bad back pains and other problems (which I'm sick of I must say), there was a tiny problem, I don't have a standing desk and I don't want to spend a lot of money or time in getting one, and in fact, I'm not really sure if someone sells this kinds of desks in my country (Chile), let alone in the little beach town I live (Viña del Mar). My solution is simple, ugly and quick, yet it works like a charm, I'm actually writing this posts in my brand new standing desk.
