>Use the 20-20-20 rule. Every 20 minutes, take a 20-second break and focus your eyes on something at least 20 feet away.

I used to have an app on my work PC that popped up a reminder if it detected 20 minutes of continuous keyboard/mouse activity. I can't remember the name now but if anyone has any recommendations I would love to hear them.

Not familiar with that rule, care to enlighten me? I’m guessing 20min working, 20 sipping coffee, another 20 pretending to work? Wait let me forward this to my boss

I've realized that staying hydrated fixes most of these problems because you're forced to get up and move and go pee pretty often

You want me to put a reminder in my calendar every 20 minutes for the work day? What do you do for work? Sounds like fucking nothing. This is fucking ridiculous.
