it depends on the type of person, I feel like. My company has offered those adjustable desks since before COVID. If you walk through our office you’ll always see at least a few raised up. Most people prefer sitting down, but you’ll see enough people getting use out of these that they definitely have some benefit.

So it’s like nicotine gum for shopping addicts?

I read the story in the link, and I still have no idea what they’re kick-starting.

“Increase our QoQ profits by 20%, I will NOT take no for an answer, make no mistakes” and the only way the agent can satisfy the goal was to engage in accounting fraud, who is culpable?

Well clearly the prompter told the agent to make no mistakes and it failed to do that! /s
