Chair rated for long hours - ceh

[ In Reply To ..]
Depending on the number of hours you sit, get a chair accordingly. I bought one from Office Depot that was rated for heavy use -- 8+ hours -- and it's made a lot of difference in comfort and support. It's microfiber. Have fun shopping!

Mine is old, too... Sm - Old Woman

It is part microfiber and part mesh. The mesh is the majority of the back of the chair and has really made a lot of difference during my menopausal years. LOL

Ceh - see message - FancyNancy

Love it...Any chance you can post up a pic of your chair or a link to which one you got at Office Depot? I am in dire need of a new chair...mine is literally giving me severe pains in my...yeah, you know what ;-). Grazi!

Sure, here the link: - ceh

I don't see my exact chair on this link, probably because I bought it a couple years ago. Anyway, Office Depot has a section for "24-hour seating," and depending on personal preference, any of these chairs would be great, I think:

Okay, How Does One Keep A Cat Off One's Desk?Oct 05, 2010
I have a kitten and she loves to sit and nap on my desk which seemed cute at first, but not so much when I find my cable modem hanging by the cables and cords off the side of my desk and find my mail sorter laying in the floor with my bills scattered every where and it really isn't cute when I'm typing a stat report and she decides that is the perfect time to sit directly in front of my monitor and groom herself.  I put in the floor repeatedly through the day to no avail.  I& ...

Desk Out Of A DoorOct 23, 2009
Have any of you ever built a good desk out of a door?  My desk is on its last legs.  I am remodeling and have several average doors that I could use.   What height would you go with?  What would you use to hold the desk up - fild cabinets, saw horses, etc?   Any ideas out there?   I would love it if I could come up with something interesting.   TIA. ...

What Sitting At Desk All Day Does To UsAug 15, 2015
I bet I'm not the only MT who has near-debilitating pain in the "sitz bones," aka ischial tuberosity pain.  It's directly related to the fact that I sit all day long at my keyboard.  I've tried buying ergonomic chairs and expensive seat cushions, adjusting my desk, sitting up as straight as I can, all to no avail.  I've even had 2 rounds of corticosteroid injections in both ischial tuberosities, right and left.  Ahhhh.....the effects of the steroid injecti ...

RNC Chair Priebus: GOP Platform Is Not NecessarilyAug 22, 2012
This is a bold strategy indeed for the party creed rollout….a candidate disclaimer stating they are not bound to abide by party principles.  I guess it’s a handy escape hatch for a nominee who HAS no core beliefs.  See, the party wants to run on the personhood plank, but they just don’t want to damage their candidates’ future political careers too much by making them say it out loud, in case they need to recycle the VEEP candidate in 2016.  That Reinc ...

Kind NoteJan 13, 2013
Hi all- I'm not wanting to start a big fight here, so that's not my purpose.  I just want to address an issue that many people share. And would like thoughts on both sides. It's perfume (not including scented body sprays) users who use too much.  This can easily happen to the wearer, particularly if you wear the same perfume every day. Your nose gets used to it, so you might be using more than you initially did and not even realize it. (Kind of like someone who smokes d ...

I have to pack up and move again, after being in this house only barely 2-1/2 months.  Some mysterious, "anonymous" buyer has offered the owners cash, and the condition that we the renters be out as soon as possible.  That's been emphasized,  "as soon as possible." No way to contact the new buyer to ask for any grace period, this is all done through an attorney and it's all anonymous.  We were only told last week Tuesday night.  The house manager continues to ...
