Get up and talk to coworkers

BBC News reports that office workers "Forget to stand."  According to as study by Dr. Myanna Duncan from Loughborough University people sit for an average of five hours and 41 minutes per day.  This has negative consquences for weight control.  It also has health consequences as noted in a previous blog post.


Before computers and email, office workers spent more time physically interacting with their coworkers as shown in this scene from the movie Brazil.
