Mr. Ergo Vs. Mr. Not: A Fun Guide To Proper Ergonomic Product Usage

We all know the importance of using high quality ergonomic products in the workplace. That being said, being an ergonomic guru goes far beyond adding the latest and greatest products. The proper useage of ergonomic items will no doubt help you achieve peak levels of performance in the workplace, while simply adding the latest and greatest devices without the proper knowledge will yield minimal results. In today's post we decided to have a bit of fun while comparing how Mr. Ergo would use products and how Mr. Not falls short. Enjoy!


Ergonomic Keyboard Tray

Mr. Ergo cares about improving his overall productivity in the workplace. He properly installs his new keyboard tray under his worksurface while following the instructions carefully. Upon installation, Mr. Ergo takes the time to research and review his products features in order to better educate himself. Mr. Ergo regularly adjusts his keyboard tray to meet his specific work style and enjoys a far more comfortable work day.

Unfortunately, Mr. Not breaks into the packaging and begins his installation process without following the much needed instructions. Once frustrated with his lack of progress, he hunts through the packaging materials in search of the instructions. Two hours later, Mr. Not's keyboard tray is installed and he goes about his work day. Eventually, Mr. Not figures out that his keyboard tray actually adjusts but never takes the time to figure out how the adjustments will benefit him. In the end, poor Mr. Not is left with a quality keyboard tray he doesn't understand and utilize properly, thus resulting in underachievement in the workplace.

Ergonomic Chair

Mr. Ergo is excited to browse the web for high quality ergonomic office chairs designed for his specific needs. He takes the time to research features that will actually improve his work day, sets a budget, and begins to shop. In all his wisdom, Mr. Ergo settles on a cost effective model and purchases it accordingly. He found a coupon for additional savings and a website offering free shipping as a bonus. Once his chair arrives, Mr. Ergo follows the instructions once again and assembles his new chair flawlessly. As Mr. Ergo has already taken the time to review his chair features, he begins testing the adjustments and finds himself working at a much higher level of comfort. In the future, Mr. Ergo isn't afraid to adjust his chair in any situation. He doesn't settle for one sit style as he values the versatility of his investment and maximizes it's potential.

Always in a rush, Mr. Not hops online and searches for the most expensive office chairs money can buy. He assumes that as the chair costs more, it must be better. Mr. Not overpays for a very high quality office chair he has absolutely no knowledge of and thinks he's ahead of the curve. Two weeks pass and Mr. Not is wondering why his chair hasn't arrived. He calls his dealer and discovers that his specialized ergo chair is a made to order product and takes two months to manufacturer. He decides to wait as he's convinced he's made an excellent decision. The chair finally arrives and Mr. Not assembles it instruction free with minimal headaches. He boasts loudly of his achievement and gathers a crowd around his workstation. Showing off his luxury chair, he begins pulling random levers to show it's "features". Caught up in all his glory, a poorly tightened screw gives way and Mr. Not is now flat on his back with a chair in pieces. Mr. Ergo remarks from over his cubicle wall... "Should of read those instructions".

Ergonomic Monitor Arm

While Mr. Ergo is working effectively with his new keyboard tray and ergonomic chair, he decides it's time to take his office adjustment capability to a whole new level. He calls his online ergonomic product specialist direct as a now repeat customer to discuss his needs. A helpful employee recommends a dual screen monitor arm and educates Mr. Ergo on the helpful features and benefits they have to offer. Mr. ergo browses the monitor mounts for two screens offered online and chooses a reputable model that fits his needs and budget. He's happy to report earning a repeat customer coupon for even greater savings and a smart buy he can be proud of. The monitor arm arrives and Mr. Ergo is pleased. He breaks out the the instructions and has his new ergo device up and running in no time. He properly mounts the screens once the arm is installed via a clamp mount on the back of his desk. He re checks the screws, routes his wires properly, and sets the movement tension to a desirable level. In the end, Mr. Ergo is not fully optimized for an efficient work day with his keyboard tray, ergonomic chair, and dual screen monitor arm.

Mr. Not sees that Mr. Ergo has added a fancy dual screen monitor arm. In attempt to regain ergonomic glory in the workplace he decides to one up Mr. Ergo and purchases a 4 screen monitor mounting system as more is always better, right? Wrong! With a lack of product knowledge, Mr. Not finds himself with a major headache on his hands. To proud to ask for help, he mounts his screens upside down but doesn't know. Once he's "finished" with his install he calls over to Mr. Ergo to take a look. Mr. Not then powers up his computer and notices the screens are upside down. He's also underestimated the size of the unit and now has an overly crowded desk space that's nearly unusable. Mr. Ergo takes pity on his underachieving friend and lends a hand with the do-over installation. It turns out, the two become friends during the process and Mr. Ergo takes a few minutes per day to educate his fellow coworker on the value of proper ergonomics in the workplace.

How to Effectively Furnish Your Small Office

Any interior designer can tell you that decorating is no picnic. There's all sorts of things to account for, including style, space, and functionality of the products chosen. In office environments, this is especially true. If that office has limited space, everything has to be considered twice to make sure all the puzzle pieces can fit together. Still, if this sounds like a burden, don't sweat it. Here's some effective tips to help you furnish your own small office!

Maximize Your Wall Space

Smart designers build up rather than out when decorating small spaces. This is because, when a place is tight on square footage, stacking takes up much less space than spreading around. Choosing storage products that either mount to or stay flush up against a wall help to free up more space in a small office. Desks like the ones from the stylish Napoli collection by Mayline make amazing desks for saving space. Choosing used ergonomic office accessories for sale saves money as well as room. Some great products that can make all the difference in a compact environment include things like overhead storage cabinets, hutches, affordable corner desks for office use, and stylish wall desks that stay out of the way. All of these things make use of wall space, leaving the interior of a room free for activity and movement.

Choose Modular Products

In a tiny office environment, modular products can make all the difference in the efficiency and productivity of your office. This is a style of furniture that has become extremely popular in business environments all over the nation because of it's space-saving abilities. The design relies on the keeping of everything at arm's reach. Say goodbye to the days when you had to walk across the office for a file or a purchase order. With stylish modular workstations for office use, drawers, hutches, and other storage devices are all just a swivel away for those sitting in chairs.

Buy a Versatile Office Chair

Unfortunately for new decorators, office chairs are often considered a trivial thing. They are usually an afterthought, bought only when everything else is in place to make sure the chair matches with the rest of the office decor. What most decorators don't realize however is that a chair is one of the most important pieces of an office setup. Buying quality executive office chairs with versatility right off the bat is one of the best ways to ensure your office is a comfortable, inviting workspace. Those with back pain, joint problems, or other common office aches can always benefit from the addition of modern desk chairs with ergonomic features to their office. Many chairs are specially designed to help relieve specific ailments for an affordable price. All it takes is some looking around.

Enhance Visual Appeal

No one likes a drab room. A space that is boring to look at is boring to be in, and when walls are left bare, it can depress the occupants. Focus is maintained by stimulation. Studies show that when employees have things to look at, they feel more energized. One of the best ways to ensure that your space is habitable is to decorate the walls with art. Colorful pictures, black and white, real-life or painting, it doesn't matter as long as there is something to entertain the eyeballs when they need a break from the computer screen. If you can't afford fancy art, plants are another great way to enliven an office space. Many varieties like golden pothos, gardenias, and spider plants have even proved adept at removing harmful substances like VOCs from the air. They are a great option for the elderly or anyone that cannot afford healthy air purifiers for office use. Both are great ways to leave an office feeling energized and inviting in a small space.

Trick the Eye

In a small space, dark colors are usually a no-no. Large slabs of furniture with heavy pigment have a tendency to cut off view, often making a space seem much smaller than it actually is. One great way to solve this issue is to go light, literally! A well-lit space will often seem much more welcoming than a place that's dark and dreary. Some good colors to go with on the walls are white, a light cream color, or sky blue to give the illusion of bigger space. An even more effective method of tricking the eye is to use glass. Because they're see-through, glass office desks typically trick the eye into thinking a space is much bigger than it actually is. They make great, effective ways to furnish that are sure to turn a few heads.

Versatile Office Storage Products for Home and Business Use

Keeping an office orderly and free of clutter can be a big enough task even when a room is spacious, but when you're caught in close quarters, it can be an enormous problem. Because so many businesses require the keeping of important hard-copy records, often for long periods of time, things like files, books, directories, and papers can build up fast with no place to go. Fortunately, office furniture manufacturers have seen this, and have worked their magic to bring you some great space saving storage devices that will clear up your office in a flash!

Storage Cabinets

The tough part about having an office (and trying to keep things clean) is that, a lot of times, we have to keep things around even if we may not exactly use them all the time. Things like three-hole punches, computer software, directories, books, binders, and old hard-copy files you deleted from your computer but still have to hold on to are probably not used too much, but without a place to go, they can stack up to make some tall pillars in a workplace. Sound familiar? Don't worry. If it does, there's a great solution. Adding one or two stylish storage cabinets can usually solve all these problems just by giving a place to things without a place and the best part is that they come in all sorts of shapes and sizes to meet your needs. Whether you need something small and square like the OFM Executive Wall Cabinet Credenza, or something tall and thin like the Mayline Brighton Glass Display Cabinet, adding one or two of these beautiful cabinets can always clear up the clutter with style!

Shelving

In offices where square footage can be measured more accurately in inches than feet, people usually figure out really quick that building up is the most efficient way to get the most out of the lack of space. Unfortunately, its easy to find oneself building the columns of the Parthenon out of purchase orders and old company records that can't be tossed out. Few realize that there is an even better way to give yourself a little more leg room without sacrificing the important stuff; this secret way is called "shelving". Adding office shelving above your office desks is a spectacular storage alternative for places that may not have the floor space for wall cabinets and credenzas because it doesn't take up any room. By keeping things on the walls, the floor is freed up for the people and cool office chairs that have to use it, not the stuff that can't. And if you'd rather not alter the walls, assembling a shelving configuration to fit inside a small adds a lot more surface areas for things to rest should you need it.

Bookcases

Got a lot of books lying around? You're not the only one. All over the world there are tons of writers and readers that are probably wondering if they should turn their ergonomic workstations into libraries instead, and with all the books they've got, they probably could. Books are extremely useful to many businesses, but whether you keep them around for advice when a computer's on the fritz or just to chill out and enjoy a good story while you eat lunch, books can make for some clunky clutter. If you've got more books than you know what to do with, shelving may not always be the best option. While it does save you on square footage, sometimes setting up good bookcases can save you a lot more space (not to mention walls). Bookcases come in all sorts of shapes and sizes, so there is bound to be one that will fit every office. If you're looking for something for a sleek stylish office, metal bookcases have got the look for you, and if your office is an active one, modern bookcases usually have wheels so they can be rolled into closets while corner bookcases sit out of the way. Whatever you choose, a good bookcase is sure to save you room and gloom when you need a good book to liven up the lunch hour!

Carts

Perhaps one of the most overlooked ways to keep things out of the way in an office is through the use of mobile carts. Adding office carts to your workplace may be one of the best business decisions you ever make for a bunch of reasons. Not only do these babies clear up space, but they can hold just about anything, from files, to food, to printers, papers, and much more, and they can go just about anywhere. These versatile office carts are fantastic storage options that hold a ton with out taking up a ton of room. Wonderful in offices and schools alike, they make amazing printer stands as well as sturdy file trucks with locking capabilities, utility carts for things like staplers and tape dispensers, and even AV and TV carts for meetings and presentations.

File Cabinets

Many businesses that require the keeping of old papers and files as part of hard copy records can get into a big mess if they don't have quality office storage products to keep them in check. Fortunately, file cabinets have been around for quite a while now, but how do you know which ones to get. For offices, believe it or not, both lateral file cabinets and vertical file cabinets can come in all shapes and sizes, so its important to know what you want out of one and where you'd like it to go in your office before you get one. But file cabinets aren't just great for offices. If you're an artist or architect, you don't have to throw out your old work because its in the way of your new stuff. Just adding a few flat file cabinets to your studio or next to your professional drafting tables can allow you to keep your work neat and out of the way.
