Sorry to hear about your Dad… yeah, I think “previous generation” (aka “older”) men don’t like the fuss and would rather struggle on for days than get help.
I should know, I’m probably one of them 😉
How’s walking and working at the same time? I’m curious as I really need to lose some calories and 10 hour days at a desk with occasional trips to the kettle isn’t good… but typing? And Teams calls?
Calls is where I use it most, but I haven’t had much trouble typing and walking at the same time, where I thought I would struggle. I’m pretty much doing agentic coding now vs hand cranking everything so I think that also makes it a bit easier to walk and type.
Even just standing up vs sitting down makes a big difference to my concentration.
Yesterday I managed to get in about 10k steps. I do get really warm walking though, and my colleagues said the same thing, so it might not be ideal right now if you’re in the south of England where it’s boiling!

It rained today 😉
Thanks for the insight… maybe… just maybe I’ll buy one of those and do some walking
