If I stood up straight, my eye level was above the window. Also, glove boxes. The shorter group members could use platforms to raise their height but had trouble reaching the corners, while I had to do a mix of taking an uncomfortably wide stance and slouching. I wish they had been more suitable for my height... I thought everything would be better with taller hoods in my current workplace, but all they did was extend the sash to the floor.

When you said glove boxes, I was thinking about all the times I hit my head on the glove boxes and Kim wipe boxes that were mounted to the front of our hoods above the sashes.

You probably meant actual glove boxes, but it reminded me the corners of our glove box holders fucking hurt to bump your head into and I should move them someday.
