Chronic neck pain solutions for auditors? Standing desks aren't portable enough. Mounted/raised monitors not an option. Frequent massages are unaffordable on that Staff 2 salary. Suggestions?

Tried that. Staff 2 salary didn't help there either. Plus I'll take the neck pain over the constant nagging.

You can request a laptop stand through the EY self help portal. You will also want to get a full keyboard. Doesn't cost anything as uncle Ernie is footing the bill.

I have a wire laptop stand--portable, but works wonders. Or you can just get a briefcase that can double as a stand (if you don't mind the sideways glances)

I thought they did away with the laptop stands. Are these different from the laptop docking stations? Thanks for the tip!

Portable standing desk would help with back pain, but I feel it would do nothing to solve the neck pain, as I'd still be looking down at my computer screen while standing. Not to mention the awkwardness of being the only person in the audit room standing.

I have a laptop stand to raise the computer to eye level. I also have a wireless keyboard since typing on a stand is not practical. This works best if you have a cube or can leave your stuff at the client so you don't have to carry it with you.

Stands are different then docks, nothing electronic about them. But I would recommend a wireless keyboard to go along with it too

Sit upright without a hunch. And sleep without a pillow. 20 min Epsom salt bath.
