A while back, I ranted about how it's not my fault I have to sit all day. At some point, I had tried to raise my desk up to be a standing desk and it didn't go up more than a few inches over the desks around it.
A few days ago at lunch, one of my coworkers mentioned standing desks. I complained that ours don't go up that high. They corrected me and listed half a dozen people at work who use the desk as a standing desk. So, I tried again to lift the desk up and, lo and behold, it worked!
I started using it as a standing desk a few days ago. My feet hurt the first day, but I can sit and use my laptop if I get tired. By Friday, I was really enjoying standing up rather than sitting down to use the computer. Hopefully, it will remain comfortable as the days go by.
