I’m a petite woman - 5ft. Looking for an ergonomic work chair with good back and neck support, also easy on the bum. Have been working for 12 hours a day everyday since March. Paid $600 for a work chair (back in April) which gives me amazing back and neck support but my bum has started hurting so bad now. 🥺
(Sorry if it’s TMI). Any recommendation?

Have you tried sitting on a cushion? Might not require a brand new chair.

Thanks M1, I’ll look into that. I don’t get as much pain when I sit on a couch. But haven’t tried working from the couch for that long though.

Does anyone have recommendations for specific products for an ergonomic desk setup? I currently use a small desk, my laptop, and a travel monitor. My back is starting to hurt so I'm looking for a good keyboard, adjustable monitors, and a good desk (perhaps standing desk). I'm overwhelmed at all the options out there, so any recommendations would be helpful!

However at a company event they made no effort to get to know the team and chose to stick to their familiar colleagues in their home office. I’d like to ask for a new resource but interested in feedback.
