Even worse than Skype for Business are those who dial in over soft phone / WiFi with the terribly degraded quality, and a perfectly good landline is sitting right next to them.

I generally have/see better quality over the soft phone with a headset than with a cell phone. Agree on the Skype thing, not sure why/how it's so different (we all have a dedicated line, just like Verizon) but there seems to be way more issues.

There’s still a new version of Skype for Business coming out, OP, for those who wish to maintain an on premise solution. So there’s still hope! 😊

Yep and the quality is superior! We use a free and paid instance here at DD. Also a lot of client use it now too. It has never not worked for me

A nice comfortable office chair.

https://ergochair.co/collections/chairs/products/ergonomics-mesh-chair-w-adjustable-headrest-and-armrest?variant=32511617597491

My criteria: mesh seat and back, arms, headrest

I tried cheap ones from Amazon. Expensive, second hand gaming chairs. Tried HM Aeron (second hand) and while I didn't like the bulk and the general design, I was sold on the mesh seating. I wanted to get the ErgoChair 2 from autonomous, but it doesn't have mesh seat.
