Today, after adjusting me, my chiropractor said I should stop sitting for long periods of time, because it's likely the reason for my chronic back pain. My job is as his front-desk receptionist. He yells at me if I'm not at my seat. FML
hfslkp47012759 tells us more.
OP here:) Y'all are pretty nice xD I should have been more specific...if I'm standing even an inch from my chair I receive comments about how I should not take the job lightly and someone could come in. What's even more ironic is that he actually recommends that I stretch in the back room, but like I said, I am given a talking to if I move much further than the printer...all in all I do enjoy my job:) I was very lucky to get it at all and I'm saving up for college. I doubt that I'll be able to fix my back issues at the university, but I'll do my best:) Kisses, Sophie ?

Maybe you should have a conversation with him about it...

Get a "doctors" note from him, just so you can flash it in his face when he questions why you're standing at work. I'm sure you both will appreciate the redundancy.

Your employer is required by law to make accommodations for ergonomic things like this. Your chiropractor will happily write a note, outlining your needs. It worked for me; I now have a standing desk, and it's great for my back! I am much happier and more productive.

What about getting a Medicine Ball to sit on? It is not as hard as a rolling/stable chair and you get a nice workout
