I remember trying to squat years ago in high school, and I never did get the bar placement thing right. I was trying to put it right on top of the thoracic spine, at the base of the neck. It's no wonder I didn't really squat for awhile after that.

But yes, once you find that groove across the shoulders or traps (depending on low or high bar position) with the scapula pulled back, it'll just fit there without any real pain or discomfort.
