 I've only use stands at home. 
 
Our rehearsals and concerts are without a break so I hold the instrument on my lap like everyone else  (talking about clarinet here, not oboe). 
 
I we did have a break, no way would I leave it on a stand or on the chair unattended.  People are so careless, and forever edging their seats around, stands, passing music, chatting etc. 
 
I wonder what goes through their mind when someone sits on their oboe. 
 
'Oh goody, an excuse not to practise next week!'    ;-)
