I got Steelcase. I like it

Check at Ikea, the top tier ones are cheap and really good quality.
You don't need to spend +300€ for a really good chair as I'm sure people will say in this app full of rich people 🤪

I just bought a steel case through a slightly used office furniture place in Nj and am loving it so far

Thank you all! Just googled the steel case chairs 👀 oooof 🔥

Hey folks - I have an inquiry on my credit for a gym membership I “failed to cancel”. I had previously left this gym as it closed during pandemic, and shifted to a new location. In doing so, I informed the gym I would be leaving. However, I recently checked my credit and saw that my membership had not been cancelled and had been sent to collections (prompting an inquiry and dropping my score).

Has anyone experienced this, and is aware of next steps to take here?
