Hi Marvin, What is it that about the lack of standing that has cost your 
friend his job? If it is because he is to low to the equiptment if he is 
seated when working, then there are some specialty wheelchairs that can 
raise him to the height he would be standing. These specialized chairs are 
battery operated and have lifts built into the seats that can raise a person 
quite high, there are also specialized chairs and standing equipment that 
will hold and support a person in a standing position. If this is the 
problem let me know and I will give you the manufacturers numbers of this 
type of equipment.
