On the other side, I really wish my office were like this. I hate having to sit down all day - my back really does start to hurt. I have a stand-up desk at home and I like it much better.

Even better than a stand-up desk is having a small treadmill. It's not like they go fast - it would be about the same as a slow walk. Suits would be fine, you don't sweat at all.

I had a cube at one point at a company who wouldn't buy me a stand-up desk, so I just put a box on top of my desk and put the monitor / keyboard / mouse on it. I obviously don't know your situation, but unless you are explicitly told you can't stand-up, you should try.

For me, I looked ridiculous standing up in the cube farm, but by the time I left, five people on my floor were standing.
