Get a standing desk from Costco

I really like my Laura Davidson chair. Customer service for a damaged part was A+.

I have use the Ergo chair from autonomous.ai and love. I used to sit on the kitchen chair so it was a clear upgrade. I found it to be a great quality/price ratio, and used the promo code r-fd299c for further discount

I've been interviewing with some companies, and now I have to decide between JPMorgan Chase and Globant.

Globant is more innovative, and has remote work. I will enter to work with a Sillicon Valley startup based in San Francisco. The tech stack is React, Nextjs, AWS, and a serverless architecture.

JPM is semi remote, and less innovative. The tech stack Java, SpringBoot and AWS. But I'd do more migration tasks, like dockerize projects and pass them to kubernetes. What would you choose?

I know everyone has a different kind of setup that works for them. I currently have a laptop, drawing pad, second monitor, and a desk riser.
