Whenever I've been working in my university's machine shop, I find that I'm usually hunching over the mills and lathes because I'm pretty tall, and my knees and ankles get pretty sore after only a couple hours of work since I'm not used to a lot of standing.
I'm hoping to work full-time in the shop for a term, but not so much if it means I'll wreck my joints and back. What can I do, both while working and out of the shop, to improve my machining posture and avoid long-term issues?
