Again, haven't been on the bench; in fact have never been on it longer than a week in my time here, but I'm thinking of making a career change and sitting here letting myself expire while getting a severance as I use my time for other things sounds more attractive than outright quitting.

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.
