I was just remarking to a colleague today how beneficial a lunchtime walk really is. The walk provided:
1. Fresh air
2. Exercise
3. A chance for the eyes to change focal range from the fixed distance of the shitty monitors work provides.
4. A chance to take a brief phone call from a recruitment agent to discuss a better job
5. A chance meeting of an old colleague I had not seen for nearly twenty years as he also took a walk.
6. I was away from the desk when the boss had a crappy task so someone else had to do it.
7. I found a new coffee shop I will revisit
8. I solved a long running problem by being able to walk and think
9. I am sure the stress levels were reduced!
- swah 12y agoAlso gets digestion going if you had a heavy lunch...
- megablast 12y agoDepends where you are. If you are outside a big city in the US, then you can't even walk anywhere unless you like walking on roads and highways.
- brianmcc 12y agoSeems more a downside of some locations, than of lunchtime walking per se?
- strathmeyer 12y agoYou think if there are fewer roads that you are forced to walk along them??
- cafard 12y agoI assume that he means along as in "on the roadway" rather than "along" as "following the road, but on a sidewalk".
- antoaravinth 12y agoThe point : > A chance for the eyes to change focal range from the fixed distance of the shitty monitors work provides. is followed by me daily. I have a cute nice wallpaper hanging behind my pc. Every say 10 minute, I change my vision to point to the wall-paper from regular pc vision. After following this, I haven't faced any eye stress. Really helped me. Anyone follows over here?
