Yes. OMG, YES!!! I finished my last big project around Halloween, and when I was done I threatened to reanimate the idiot who thought that setup was a good idea, and then make his zombie corpse sit at my table until his back was as twisted as mine was. In general, I like my table, but it's got drawers on one side and a narrow cupboard on the other, and there is no way to straddle the leg, so I'm left sitting centered and twisted.
All I can think is that arrangement was created by somebody who didn't anticipate spending all day in front of their machine.
