You know, my British manager threatened to withdraw my WFH/hybrid work privileges if I do not have an workspace "approved" by the handbook and the sit on floor way is not in the book. It does not matter that I had done it without problems for my entire life and studies had shown it can be better for one's health, it is just not in the handbook. So I had to make up a work station to show him how I can work "safely". 🤷

Wow…

We are living in the age of insanity...

Sit on floor, work on coffee table (or something similar). That is how I WFH or make models. So I sit for 8 hours on the floor WFHing and then more model making. Oh, breaks for meals are also...sat on the floor. 😉

Maybe I should just get on with that Atedai (japanese bench for woodworking) that I have been thinking of doing ... Would be easily stowed under the bed or propped up behind something. Oddly enough, I need less table space when I am working sitting down on the floor (and not because I put books etc on the floor itself - it has something to do with perception and working angles or something, no idea).

How essential is the wife? They do take up a lot of room and money to think of it... worth considering.

I was going to say something similar, but I didn't, cause I would never do that, I wouldn't.
I'm far too classy.
So, don't get rid of the wife (WINK!!)!!!

I am also asian and can sit on the floor decent amount of time, but americanized life style changed that for a bit.
