Would wearing one of those grounded ESD leashes prevent this? It’s kinda silly, but if it works I’ll absolutely put one of those lil fuckers at my desk.
Funny you mention, I just recently got some ESD shoe harnesses to try out and see if they'll drain it enough to reduce the shock. May have to go full ESD lab with grounded work pads and everything at some point hahaha.
