Finally found THE one, after over a year of searching and trying out at least 5 different ones!
A nice comfortable office chair.

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.

Hey! Any Google folks know if it’s possible to negotiate fully remote if a contract role is hybrid? Personally, I don’t want to relocate and go to the office on a contract role given the current economy. Plus, I’m assuming contractors are the first to go in layoffs. I just think it’s a fair trade off if I’d be allowed to work fully remote. I’m also trying to have flexibility to manage my Airbnb business in a different country. Same time zone as the home office if I’d travel weeks at a time.

Advice based on personal experience: consider looking into buying a standing desk. Sitting all day is going to kill you (fig. and litt.). Since I do meetings standing up, I stand about 3 hours a day, makes a great difference in back issues, mobility and general wellbeing.
Crandall office furniture. Got my steelcase leap v2 for <500, and it's changed my WFH life.
Just go preowned on Craigslist or Facebook Marketplace, especially if you're looking at the Aeron. $300~$400 for the Classic and $600~$700 for the Remastered.
Bought a pre-owned Aeron locally on Facebook this weekend. Very very pleased.
