I look like an ass.
I have this really nice office at work with a huge L-shaped desk, big window, adequate filing space and my very own radio (in addition to the satellite radio that’s pumped in). The only thing I don’t like in my office is my chair. I’d rather stand some days.
The chair is made of leather. It’s comfortable for sure. I can’t, for the life of me, figure out how to lower the damn thing. This is a problem because I’m short and my feet barely read the floor when I’m sitting all the way back.
Some days the pants, skirt or dress I am wearing and the chair don’t get along. Because the chair has a slippery surface, when I sit on it with a silky-like dress and then try to pull myself forward so I’m closer to my desk, I move forward, but the chair does not.
I’m waiting for the day I fall flat on my ass under my desk. That’s professional.
That would be me flying off the chair
I too have a slippery chair, but I’m not allowed to wear skirts or dresses to the office. How unfair is that?
Most chairs have a level under the seat that you can lift to make you sink. Oh noes, do you have a leverless chair?
Sarah –
I do have a leverless chair!
Perhaps you should stick some double sided sticky tape on to the chair. THen you will never have slippage problems.
