Big and Tall Office Chairs Examined

There's this advertisement for a company that I found on that bulletin board announcement.  It has about five chairs that are in ascending order with a respective title and position beside the five chairs.  Smallest was for junior, and listing down to the largest chair for the executive or president.  At first, I thought it was an ergonomics chair manufacturer, boasting of the different products that they offer to their market.  Dorky, I told myself after belatedly realizing what they actually meant. 

But as long as it was when I found that advertisement, it is as contemporary as big and tall chairs means only for the executives.  When you visit a number of offices in the city, you'll find that you'll be greeted with big and tall office chairs commonly around.  This means that even a junior is well seated in one.  And when you are visiting an office, even in their lobby or conference meeting room, you'll be greeted with a lot of them.

Why?  Because, big and tall office chairs work well with a small person, and accordingly, very well fitting for those bigger and taller ones.  Hence, no matter the varying size of people at the office, it is as comfortable for the larger one, as it is for the smaller one. 

No more tall and big executives squeezing themselves in those contemporary office chairs, or those office desk ones.  You wouldn't expect a larger dad squeezing in that smaller shirt of his 12-year-old, right?  Or perhaps, that teeny pair of slippers.

Perhaps there's that point as well of a 12-year-old getting in that daddy's big shirt.  But looking at it more closely, wouldn't it be more convenient for that kid to get in that shirt, than a dad squeezing that big frame in a smaller one?

Comfort.  That is basically what big and tall office chairs are about.  Accordingly, you'll find about a lot of them in very stylish fabric and leather finish.  As they say, keeping it big and sweet. 

As the advertisement of that company I found years ago in the bulletin board announcement, I find myself, now, totally disagreeing with it.  As dorky as I was in belatedly realizing that it was an IT company leveraging the size of chair to a particular position, it is as dorky as those people who still think of that equation.  You don't need to be president or an executive to get a big and tall chair, you can even get yourself one at home.  Ultimately, this means that comfort is the key.  If presidents and the rest of the executives are working their lives off while comfortably seated in those big and tall chairs, it is equally justifiable to be seated on similar designs – especially if you are the very heart of the operations that those executives are working their lives for.
