Where is the best position for a mobile pedestal from an ergonomic standpoint?

Ergonomically, a mobile pedestal should be positioned so that frequently accessed items (top drawer) can be reached without twisting, bending, or reaching beyond a comfortable arm's length from the primary seated position. The pedestal should be to the side of the primary desk (under the return or beside the main surface) rather than behind the user, which would require awkward twisting to reach. When placed under the return, the top of the pedestal should be at or slightly below desk height so it does not restrict leg or knee movement. Rarely-used drawers (bottom file drawer) can be slightly further from the primary position.
