Yes. These desks were never made to have computers in them–they’re old study things. You know, the ones that nobody sits at in the library because the only privacy is a two feet tall divider.

When you do this, do you have to use your arms to put your leg up? heh

so… I head off to the mens room. I figure, I’ll get it out before my 12:30 meeting.

There I sit, texting the fiance - then off to play some tetris and I think of this thread. The thought brought on a small laugh… then BAM! It breaks off. :ohnoes:

10 minutes later I’m done ‘cleaning up’ and 5 minutes late for the meeting.

I blame Jack.

your legs are going numb because you’re leaning forward on your knees with your elbows…looking downward at your phone/article…happens all the time, there’s some nerve or something in your leg right above the knee i’m assuming that gets pinched when you do this…try it out, sit down somewhere and lean your weight forward on your knees by resting your elbows there, and see if i’mm right…
