Yeah, sitting on mine is not unlike sitting on a paper napkin!

Mine makes a noise like a whoopee cushion when I sit on it!!

The first chiropractor I went to told me to get the wallet out of back pocket because it messes up spine alignment.

Hi guys, thought I'd chime in. I was in a car accident a few years ago. I had a fusion done on my lower back. With  that said try to sit straight not slumped over, agree with the wallet placement or don't wear it at all when your not going out. I was told to let pain be your guide as to how much you could do.  In the garage I raised my workbench to approximately4" from the floor. The bench is 4 1/2' tall. I did this to keep the work in front of me so I would not be stooping over when I am working on something on the bench.

Yup. I've never had my wallet in my back pocket, always in my right front pocket!

Also,  office ergonomics tell you to take a 5-10 minute break per hour.  Get up, walk around, do some stretches.
