Finally found THE one, after over a year of searching and trying out at least 5 different ones!
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.
AMA.
Looking for some book recommendations :)

You sound like a self starter with balls. Love it. Shouldn't be at the D.
Aren't you hung up on how high you can go? And how do you define "high"? Based on what's popular with other people? Seems like you are trying to prove something to everybody, and why would anybody care?
Yes prestige counts
For how clients will view you, for how peers will, and ultimately for the networks that come with them
Same here, mck2 - people like OP spew shit like this to overcome their own insecurities. We should not entertain them.
Only insecure people are hung up on pedigree. That, and people who want to prrpetuate barriers to entry.
Ok so go you?
...only men can get away with this
Np OP. I felt you were insinuating that those of us that did work hard since Childhood to build a pedigree were a bunch of idiots. I completely agree as I said before that there are many roads to success. Maybe I read too much into your post, my apologies.
You're right it might be over reacting. I was hoping to give you a bit of reality check. While it's good you have a decent job, the pretentious tone of your post is unwarranted. The comment was intended to point out both are 2nd tier firms and on an objective scale DD isn't even the top of the 2nd tier. In holding yourself up as an example of how prestige doesn't matter, it'd be better if you achieved something more material. There's a long way to go before claiming equivalence to a top grad from a top school. I was hoping to illustrate, albeit poorly, that hard work early to get into prestigious school shortens the journey to the" top "dramatically. That is another reason prestige matters. It may have helped you fighting against your lack of prestigious background to get ahead, but at a certain point you can drop the chip and just go after it.
I'm happy at DD (have done some of those interviews), but my story is pretty similar to yours OP. I always laugh at those that think they'll get ahead because of their school.
Same OP
Not to mention out of debt. I just followed the fancy lunches and found my way around.
Minus the other stuff, but we here we here
SM out of curiosity what firm r you with ?
I'm with BCG, for your information.
Actually at @D1 I followed ladies to the fancy lunches and I am a male POC 💅🏽
SM1, I took a low shot but I think you're overreacting. Who cares if Accenture is better or Deloitte is better. What I said to you earlier is if you're at Accenture, not exactly sure how much 'prestige' plays a part in getting into the company or succeeding there. It's a large company just like Deloitte and hire just about anyone
SM1, your more detailed response resonated with me. Thank you
Also- are you male?
D1, for more money obviously...and yes I'm male.
D1 is this racist too?
The answer to your question is yes there are still many
D1 what does being male have to do with anything
A2 how's that turning out for you over at Accenture?
