My husband and I got a 2 bed apt so I could use the other room as a home office. I have worked in the bedroom and living room for the past 2 years (which has been awful) not to mention I cook, clean, etc. I said I was excited to decorate “my office” and he completely blew up and said I should pay more rent. I hate to be this person but I’m fully remote making 6 figures and he’ll only wfh 3 days a week so I should get the better setup. Any advice on how to split an office space?

My new company (joined a F100 a few weeks ago under the remote policy🙈) is now trying to pull everyone back to office. They’ve hired a ton of new ppl in my city over the pandemic and there is no way everyone will have a desk. In the FAQs it says that “you will be able to use common spaces, conference rooms, and other shared spaces when you are onsite” … so you want me to leave my quiet and fully equipped home office to go and take all of my calls from a lobby or cafeteria?
