Looking for Recommendations for standing desk mat. I’m aware of Topo mini by Ergodriven, Kangaroo Original and Autonomous. Are there other better quality mats that I should consider?

What’s driving you to buy one? Comfort? Pain? Are you standing for long periods or just in bursts?

I think most people can get by with a cheapo mat. Otherwise, I’ve heard good things about the Topo.

Like I said, I’m looking for a good quality mat since I plan to stand for longer periods.

Still doesn’t really answer why or for how long. Just for “health” or an actual health reason like back pain while sitting? Your whole work day or just a few minutes an hour?

I use the Topo, it’s overkill, but it is nice.

How would your recommendations change for my requirements of needing a quality mat in the following scenarios?
1. “Health” and whole work day
2. “Health” and just a few minutes in an hour
3. Actual health reason and whole work day
4. Actual health reason and just a few minutes in an hour.

The new company I’m at now sent me an email from an email address that was HR@companyName.careers saying I was accepted for the position. They gave me paperwork to fill out and sign to accept the position

I fill out the paperwork and send it back to them and it goes through… then a few days later I go back to the email to say something else and I get this…?
Then today I got a check from the company In the mail to setup my home office, and it’s signed by someone I’ve never met before or heard of…?

What…..

A quick note about what I’ve experienced, in my decade long career, is the real advantage of MBB or FAANG - it gives you a shot at stretch roles that are outside your expertise. Not all the time or even most of the time compared to better candidates with specific experience for the role but gives you this wildcard shot at a vast array of opportunities.
