I like it. No commute or petrol costs, don't have to iron work clothes and can just get on with things with no distractions. I take the dog out a few times for a change of scenery.

Don't even have to wear clothes at all really

Just roll my bed into my office and never even really need to get out of bed as long as I can reach the keyboard & mouse

Exactly, Skype into meetings directly from bed.
 
When I'm not Instructing classes on base, i'm generally at my computer
 
I’m at a desk most of the day, but I try and take the chance to get up and move around as much as possible. I usually spend my lunch break walking-I work at college/university in a large rural campus so there’s plenty of space for a post-lunch constitutional.
 
I'm an truck driver, so the entirety of my job requires me to sit down.
 
Cycle to 4 miles to work, stand 95% of the time, cycle home.
 
Hell no. I work in the elements, rain or shine, doing a real man's job. Office jobs are for females and the disabled.
 
Yeah I sit and work indoors.
 
Do you sleep in your truck?

Laying down in it as I type this.

Live, work, and sleep in an area the size of a walk-in closet.

YES!! I was hoping you had something like these

I always loved how tricked out some people big rig sleeping quarters are

Do you throw piss jugs off the highway?

I just have my stuff in here, with a comfortable mattress.

Piss bottles are an unfortunate reality for truckers. Since we're sitting down as much as 11 hours within 14 hours, sometimes truck and rest stops are dozens of miles away.

But I never throw the bottles out the window. That's disgusting, and I hope those drivers get caught by the police and get fined as much as $2000, depending on the state.

I always throw my bottles into dumpsters at truck & rest stops. No exceptions.
 
Gotta love those stock photos.
The construction worker is wearing a clean shirt with a button down collar, hard hat is completely shiny, and those work gloves look brand new, without a speck of dirt. I guess they thought making him Latino was all the realism they needed.
Well at least they made him clearly high as a kite in that photo, so that part lines up with every construction worker I've ever met.
 
I sit down most of my working day but I don't even seen a computer normally unless I go over to the managers office...

And the teachers at school told me no one would pay me to stare out of the window....

I work on my monitor tan daily, switching between sitting on each cheek.
 
I spend some times at my desk and some times out in the community/teaching/conferences/etc.

I've wanted this since I was young because I've only ever had jobs where I was on my feet all cot-damn day. I'm a grown ass man and educated, I'm done with that shit... Unless I get a professor position, then I don't mind.
