Aeron

Pulled the trigger on aeron.

Been using an embody now for a year or so and it’s been fantastic. Plenty of adjustment options and the back molding makes it comfortable to sit in for longer periods.

Wasn’t a fan of the mesh and “butt feel” of the aeron 😂

Go with the Embody

A1, no!
I don't wanna 😛

If those are the only choices, I liked the Embody better.

If you want to expand your options, I highly recommend Steelcase chairs.

I went with the Leap V2. Best combo of adjustability, personal comfort, and aesthetics. You can get pretty good deals on refurbished ones.

I have an Aeron in the office and I get uncomfortable by the end of long days. Long days in the home office, not so much.

Hello RSM coworkers! I am thrilled to be moving to RSM into a Scheduler roll. I just found out yesterday and want to be as prepared as possible in the next steps.

So here are my questions.

How long does the background study take? I'm guessing admin staff have a study that is faster and less complicated than someone in Tax ect.

When training at home what did you need that wasn't supplied by RSM? My home office is well stocked but I want to be as prepared as possible.

Thanks in advance!

This week I started a listen through my entire record collection from front to back. I’ll be doing this on workdays when I am in my home office. Did it a few years ago.
