standing all day just switches the problem elsewhere. If you have posture issues in your chair then you are most likely to have posture problems when you are standing as well.

I've worked long hours in machine shops standing all day and I overcame a lot of these issues by keeping a firm upright position, don't slouch and be sure to get some good shoes. What helps even more is getting some of those rubber work matts they have at home depot. Stack a few on there and it will save your knees and feet some shock. Sitting is even easier though.. get up and walk around for 10 seconds every hour and you don't have to worry about circulation issues either.
