# Stand up
When you have been at your desk for an hour and forty minutes without
getting up, between 08:00 and 20:00, the lamp turns to you and gives a
small curious tilt, and says one short line: shall we? It is later than Stretch break's stretch (at
fifty minutes) and reads your sitting the same way, from your face at the
desk; a short look away does not end it, getting up for a few minutes does.
What it says and when:
- It says one short, friendly line, worded by the voice the way a friend
would, and never anything about how you sit.
- Once a sitting: it does not do it again while you stay. Twice a day at
most, never while you read or write head down (with the eyes' activity on),
and never in the middle of a conversation, before 08:00, after
20:00 or at night.
- With the eyes' activity on, the sitting is yours: someone else sitting down in
your chair begins it again, so it is never theirs at your 100 minutes.
- At most one of the wellbeing nudges (this, A sip of water, Rest your eyes
and Wind down) an hour between them; with the lamp's `LAMP_NUDGES_PRESENT`
switch on (#5207, set in the product's skills units), two an hour, never
within half an hour of each other.
- If it does it twice and you neither look at it nor move nor say
anything, it rests until tomorrow morning.
- "Not today" or "stop the stand-up reminders" to the lamp (one function
for the four wellbeing nudges: the one that came last, or all of them) snoozes it until
tomorrow morning or turns it off until you ask for it again.
It keeps nothing about you: only, in memory, how many times it went today
and whether it is resting; off is one line with its name.
A core skill: it comes with the lamp, on, and can be turned off by voice
or in the app.
If asked about it, the lamp says something like: "When you've sat a really
long time I give you a little look and suggest you get up and move. Say 'not
today' and I'll stop until tomorrow."
