I see lots of folks that sit like this (I find myself tending towards this at times). Your rear is slid forward on the seat like you're sliding out of it so that your lower back is not touching the seat back. It's a crap way to sit.
Bad
I'll admit to sitting like that when my back is bothering me. My back was mostly fine all weekend, sitting in a chair, sitting on the couch, etc. Came back to work and sat down, lots of pain in about 5 minutes.

I swapped chairs, there's been an area of our building that's been vacant for a while, the department that was there moved to another building and they haven't back filled because they want to replace the carpet.

So I'll try this mesh backed chair, it's a Haworth, the old one was a Steelcase, I've had that chair for 20 years, maybe this one is better, I don't know. Pretty sure I had it adjusted right.
