The side effects that I think of are:
foot and leg pain
varicose veins
back pain

If you don't have good posture, your lower back could start hurting. Of course, if you are female, you could develop varicose veins, but I don't guess you have to worry about that.
Lucky you lol

( I cant' spell good)You can get what I have it is hard to spell Planta Flirtis I think it is, where your tissues of your feet begin to wear out, I had to get needles in my feet every two weeks. ( cortizone shots) It is hard to stand in the morning ( very sore, tender, and it hurts bad.

worse that can happen is muscle strain if youre really out of shape....or physical fatigue.....only time people get hurt from being on their feet at work is if theyre wearing the wrong kind of shoes.....your feet will hurt bad if you wear crappy shoes

Varicrose veins for one! But you're young.
