Ergonomics.

Today I had watched a video, it was discussing ergonomics. What is ergonomics? Well ergonomics is the study of how the human body uses a working space. Some bad habits of mine are to slouch and to hold the phone in between my ear and shoulder because I have to have two hands to type well. I think my working area isn't fully ergonomically sound because we don't have elbow rests and lumbar support for our spine. To sit the right way at the computer you need to sit up straight with both feet on the floor. The home row keys should be lined up with with your elbow. Your eyes should be lined up with the top of the computer screen and you document holder should also be at this height so you don't have to continue looking all over the place. The mouse should be right next to the key board, and you should have lumbar support, also, you should never hold the phone in between your shoulder and ear. That's really all to having a ergonomically sound working space.
