By the time you finally get around to adjusting your ergonomic chair, raising your screen, maybe even buying that ergonomic cushion everyone recommends, you expect things to feel better. And for a while, they might. But then the headaches still creep in by the end of the day or right after a long stretch of work or on days when you barely even noticed your posture slipping.
