Anyone love their home office chair? My back hurts.

Home office revamp recommendations:
1. Autonomous standing desk: honestly the best desk ever! Order arrived in 3 days, even better quality than I imagined. I got the L shape one, fits 3 monitors and a laptop comfortably on one side. Now I stand while taking calls. I wish I had it last year during busy season. Oh I have a promo code if anyone is interested: R- 200les
2. Steelcase gesture office chair: same chair as PwC office.

I have several the large Toblerone chocolate bars in my work desk and usually get through one a week. More if it’s a rough week. I know this can’t be good for me but I am really loving my life right now.

Has anyone purchased an ergo office chair with their HSA?

I have HDMI hub that allows me to switch monitor screen between two laptops. Is there any cheap resolution for 3 laptops and an extra monitor?

You think I can get away with claiming a standing desk for QOL reimbursement?

Wow. I finally got a standing desk and it is LIFE changing 🫶

How far do you live from your home office? How often do you go in? (pre-pandemic)

Out of the blue I'm getting advertised the reMarkable 2 paper-like tablet all over the place. Has anyone else used something like this as a replacement for legal pads (currently have like 12 on my tiny home office desk)? Is it worth it?

How did you get started in your career as an FA? I work in the home office and have been an assistant to an FA before. I have a network, I have ambition, I have credibility and connections at my firm..

Finally come to accept that this WFH is going to last a while, and looking for inspiration to set up my “home office”! Please send along some pictures/ideas 💛 Thank you!

Starting a new job and figuring out WFH desk set up. They gave me a laptop and $500 stipend for office furniture. I have a desk, chair, and iMac for myself. Trying to decide if I should get a second monitor on an arm for work, or if I should buy a new laptop for myself and a monitor I can plug each computer into at the start/end of work. I def want a big screen for personal use but it's tough to fit it all on one desk. What did you all do?

Amazon prime day deals? Pretty much assume there’s not gonna be anything particularly good here but I’m primarily thinking about an Apple Watch or home office tech like monitors or a standing desk

👀 Still looking for an apartment swap in NYC. I have a clean apartment in Mexico City. The dates are October 27th to November 3rd, Day of the Dead holiday weekend. With LOTS happening. Located in the best area of Mexico City with a ton of restaurants, cafes, and parks. High speed internet with standing desk, large TV, external monitor, and more. Message me your email or phone number and we can text to exchange pictures and more information.

Damn I miss my life before the pandemics (the home office part can stay, though).

Looking for furniture store recos in Brooklyn (new or second hand). I need a couple pieces including an office chair and would prefer to try them out in person. I'm in Fort Greene but I do have a car for places further out. Thanks for the help.

Joining a new company soon. Do you think they will provide home office stipend or is it too late in the pandemic?

Met this really cute guy at national training, exchanged phone number, but he's heading back to home office tomorrow. Advice?

Whoever is the chair of this bowl--please pin one of the substantive ergonomic chair threads. Keeps coming up endlessly--and will likely happen again and again in this extended WFH surreal moment in all our personal and professional lives.

Does it make sense to move from one business unit to another at same position? What sort of pay raise one usually gets with that kind of move? Currently at B30 (Senior Analyst).

Guys, I have got an offer in Concord Technologies which is a small Product based company with around 250 employees. It is established since 1996 though. They are paying good as well without any negotiation. Thoughts please??

I really hate cvs right now. I called Monday to switch my prescription to the pharmacy so I wouldn’t have to wait until after Christmas for the mail order. They told me it was on hold until today so I called to get the status and now they still haven’t gotten it in and they said maybe on Monday it will come. I’m trying to really hard not to cry but I’m in pain and I really needed that medication. Does anyone have any remedies to relive the migraine pain? I normally take Zomig but I’m all out.

Has anyone gotten lip fillers? Getting them for the first time tomorrow and intend to only get enough to replace the volume I’ve lost as I’ve aged, not increase the size of them. Nervous people will notice (fwiw I’m only having zoom meetings now). Curious if others have had them without detection and whether I’m being paranoid.

Thankfulness. This is definitely an awful, stressful, uncertain time. But, what is one thing you can be thankful about? Maybe if we focus on those things instead of the negatives we can survive.

Is the lateral market for corporate still hot? Heard some stuff about it slowing down. Woke up this morning and decided I need something new so hopefully I didn't miss the boat. I'm a mid-level.

Have we watched “For here or to go” on Netflix yet? So so relatable to our lives here in the US. Very well executed.

Does anyone know of any securities/capital markets boutiques in NYC?

Second year corporate associate — I have an extremely difficult time managing my workload. I feel that I’m otherwise a solid associate, but my main criticisms in reviews have been around communication of my workload and taking on conflicting deals. I just moved from biglaw to a large boutique, and this is something I’ve struggled with in both firms. Does anyone have advice on improving this skill and learning to better anticipate the needs of particular deal and client times?
