Tradd, I'm so glad your new job and boss are remaining a pleasant change. How nice it is to be treated as an adult.

Okay, so I am now being trained in a new area - HOPEFULLY temporarily!!! - as I am now packaging items before final shipment. It entails standing at a table, confirming items and packing out. Just standing. For 8 hours. Standing. Sigh...
I definitely enjoyed the picking better as I was able to move and remain active. If this new position is where they plan to keep me, I'll definitely be looking for a new job. Hopefully, it is just a "training" period for temporary assistance as needed.

Standing in one spot is so hard on the back. Walking is so much better.

Happy, Biofreeze is wonderful for aching muscles/joints. You can get it at any big box store or pharmacy. Worth every penny. I slather it on my bad knees every morning. Suggest Motrin, Advil, or pain killer of choice, as well.
Made note of the Biofreeze, thanks, Tradd. I have been doing the various pain killers, but I really don't like taking them often - rarely, if at all. However, I feel like I've been taking a lot lately. But, then again, they do help so... LOL - damned if I do and damned if I don't.

I see no reason that those picking and those standing still, couldn’t trade places every hour throughout the shift.
When will we learn that humans are not machines.
Oh no, Happy, I hope the change is temporary as well. That sounds unpleasant.
Thanks, all. This too, shall pass. LOL. It'll be fine - one way or another.
