Returned to the office this week (or as ny boss calls it “returned to each other :)”) and the company got a few treadmill desks- just a few rooms with computers attached to treadmills
I've come across some very mixed opinions when it comes to this topic. To me, it seems pretty dystopian and unnecessary (why should you have to work while exercising), but some people I've talked to say that they prefer to be up and moving while working
In response, I said that I don't believe you should have to worry about being confined to a desk for multiple hours and you should be able to take breaks/get some exercise without worrying about focusing on work.
Honestly, I think it reduces someone's agency to only having utility as a worker. Honestly, do these things not prove that we might be working too much? It reminds me of the matrix and how the humans were used as batteries
Not a fan at all, but people tell me I'm too pessimistic. What are your thoughts?
