Re: [Avid-L2] Editing on your feet

Standing at this very moment. I'm a big fan so far. It's funny, since I
started there are 4-5 other folks in the department who have taken up the
charge as well, not all of them sticking with it though. I find I have more
energy through the day and am more active in sessions. The clients/coworkers
definitely see less of the back of my head, when I am not pounding on the
keys I am usually standing sideways so I can see them and the screens. It's
become quite a talking point as well, whether coworkers passing the suite or
clients who want to see what it feels like to stand at the computer.
Physically, the first month was the worst. Everyday I discovered a new part
of my feet, legs or back that ached; but that all went away. I started with
thick cushioned shoes but now can wear just about anything and my heels
aren't sore. On long days I will feel it after 12 hours or so, but on the
other hand I don't feel so sleepy at that point. Overall I recommend it, but
go for it completely. All the folks who have dropped out used a high chair
at the same time and then ended up just sitting high all the time. At least
give it 2 months before investing in a tall chair.
