I also do 12-15hr days. And I’m usually on my feet. So standing up the in shower is a hard concept to accept. I need to get a shower chair.

What I do is lift the curtain and lay the bottom of it across the edge of the tub, then I sit down there. The curtain rod has yet to come crashing down on my head, but you have to be careful not to spill water outside of the tub, because it will pool up behind you and make a big mess if you're not careful when standing up and putting the curtain back.

Hope I explained this adequately, cause it will save you some money on not getting a chair.

when I was a child and didn't have to pay bills I would lie in the bathtub with a washcloth over my face to protect my eyes with the drain open and just lay there in the warm shower until i used up all the water in the heater.

It's such a nice feeling to just lie there and be gently pattered by warm water

Waterboarding yourself for shits and giggles. Remind me not to get on your bad side

This requires a tub though. A chair can be simpler.
