I remember when the first Apple watch came out, many of my co-workers bought one (company discount). We'd be halfway through a meeting and suddenly they'd all stand up in unison because their watch told them to.
- jxramos 6y agoGotta get meet that stand quota!
- canofbars 6y agoWhen I got the watch it was on a weekend and I figured the stand ring was useless because how do you manage to not stand once in an hour. Then monday hit and it was telling me to stand up every hour and it always feels like it was just 10 minutes ago since the last reminder.
- samatman 6y agoGood. You were all starting to suffer lower back compression, and no doubt the CO2 levels in that room were off the charts. Better would be to make a rule that all meetings must conclude when people's watches start telling them "knock it off, you're an animal not a machine, stand up now or spend your last couple decades in pain".
- cwhiz 6y ago...that isn't how stand notifications work.
- thewebcount 6y agoYes it is. If you haven't stood for 1 minute in the last hour then at 50 minutes into the hour you get a notification telling you that. I, too, work in an office of iOS users, and this frequently happens in our meetings. Everyone's watch goes off at the same time at the end of the hour.
- whiddershins 6y agoI had that on an airplane last year, it was hilarious and inconvenient and all I could think was ‘they gotta stagger this notification a little.’
