Maybe I'm weird but I used to work in jobs where I was on my feet all day. Once I saw a co-worker in an office where she had this sort of lab-bench-like desk and a high chair so she could sit comfortably.
It made perfect sense to me. You could stand until that got tiring and then you could sit until that got tiring (Yes, sitting can be tiresome. Why do you thing your butt hurts and you need to stretch so much?) You could alternate back and forth throughout the work day.
I bet back trouble would go down tremendously if this became the rule at the office.
