Hello HN,

as typical CS engineer, I spend most of my time at a desk. The problem is: I don't even like spending time at my desk. I don't like sitting and staring at a screen for days, weeks and probably years on end. Now say that I'd want to get away from said desk, while still doing those task most of us relish and take pride in - thinking, organizing, solving problems in creative ways.

So as main questions: Do you actively work in or know of a profession that enables you to have it all - physical activity, creativity, problem solving?

I know that there are many ways to alleviate the problems of sitting and staring at a screen for too long like intermediate pauses, standing desks, treadmills and so forth - but I want to look forward to the activity itself, not find ways of making it bearable.

Thanks for your input
