Although your manager has said that this issue will resolve itself if you sit on it for a while, that is not necessarily true. No matter what the product might be, a bad fit on the first day is often a bad fit every day.
This does not mean that you should simply collapse and take a back seat on this matter. Many of today’s new office chairs are technical marvels, often accompanied with booklets that explain how to make them comfortable and effective for you. If you do not have such a booklet, you should ask for one. And if you do have the booklet, try to follow the instructions and see if you can tailor the set-up to meet your needs.
Many of these vendors and manufacturers also have customer service personnel for such help, and some even have staff who will visit a customer’s workplace to help set up the new chairs for each individual user. You should sit down with your manager and discuss this possibility.
