Standing is a power move. It says "I'll fix your problem so quickly it doesn't justify sitting down". Unless you know it's gonna be a long one, then seize the throne.

taking their chair is the real power move. Its my computer now.

Yeah but not if it's only gonna take you 45 seconds. Then you just look silly sitting down and getting right back up again.

Truth is I rarely go to a machine to fix it. I usually remote in and fix it. If I show up its gonna take more than 45 seconds. If I work on them locally I sit or look over their shoulder as I show them for the thousands times how to correct their own mistakes.
