[lbo-talk] Supermarket question

[joanna]

I would guess that standing is actually healthier than sitting (for 
checkers) because of the handling that has to occur 
(reaching/turning/carrying) and because, in general, sitting is not very 
good for you.

I sit in front of a computer all day long and have been thinking of 
getting one of those big balls to sit on or maybe, even stand.

Painters often stand when working.

I'm not saying this is why managment has people standing, I'm just 
guessing that it's healthier to do so.
