Today, I threw out my back while trying to put together my new ergonomic chair, which was supposed to help my bad back. FML

Hey guys. OP here. Everyone's asking if I finished the chair. I did, but not for several hours. My old chair I was using was barely functional and leaned to one side causing me a lot of pain. I casually mentioned that my back hurt to my boss. The next day when I came into the office I found a box with a new chair was waiting at my desk. Since I am the sole employee of this business and was alone, I had to put it together myself. I threw out my back lifting up one of the parts of the chair. It wasn't even heavy, it was just awkward removing it from the box. My boss was running late and came into work 2 hours later to find me laying on the floor with the half constructed chair next to me. I'm doing okay now. The chair is actually helping.

I'm sorry for your pain, but I'm laughing at the thought of your boss finding you on the ground

Back pain always comes back. And that's why back problems are the spawn of satan.

You should have had a professional install it.

Maybe chiropractic help wouldn't be a bad idea as well...

At least it's helping you heal after hurting you in the first place! Hope it's nothing too serious! Get better soon :3

If you have a bad back, why the hell were you assembling the chair in the first place? Ask for help, OP.

You might want to get help with that next time if you don't wanna kill your back.
