Setting up a new home office for my wife. Any recommendations on which 24inch monitor should I get? Don’t want to spend a crazy amount but looking for something would work well since she’ll use it daily.

I’d recommend going up to at least 27in.

like

It's not how many inches you have, it's how you use the real estate that matters.

Are you planning to wall mount the monitor or have it sat on a desk?

like

You should really consider mounting if you can. Gives off such a clean look

like

Get dual 27 inch 1440p monitors and don’t look back, you won’t have to think about it for 5-10 years.
Samsung, LG have solid options that aren’t pricey.

After a while with dual 24 inch 1080p monitors you’ll inevitably regret not getting 27s. Add a dual monitor VESA mount (Amazon) and you have a clean desk setup

like

Samsung has some nice curved 24 inch monitors for under $200 (at least before covid…may have crept over 200 now)

Try a curved monitor before you buy it. It’s a very different experience especially with the 1000R ones.

U4021QW - get this one

I have two set ups... 2 24in and 1 34in curved... I'd go with the single, larger curved monitor. Cleaner, easier and cheaper.

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!

Just landed a full time gig, looking to get some furniture so I’m not working on my parents’ kitchen table during this remote period. Any recommendations for desks and chairs? I’m hoping to find something that’s easy to assemble and break down for when I need to move, and something that won’t cost an arm and a leg.

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.

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

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…?

1099 or w-2 ? I have been given the option though the company prefers w-2. It’s a day rate booking couple of months or more (no end date). I already have 1099 from similar company this year and am leaning towards 1099, but I don’t want to be difficult. I do take home office deduction and they are not supplying any equipment. Suggestions?

My criteria: mesh seat and back, arms, headrest

I tried cheap ones from Amazon. Expensive, second hand gaming chairs. Tried HM Aeron (second hand) and while I didn't like the bulk and the general design, I was sold on the mesh seating. I wanted to get the ErgoChair 2 from autonomous, but it doesn't have mesh seat.

CTR, contracts and department overhaul

our marketing dept is undergoing a complete overhaul. under old leadership, a $75k 12-mo contract was signed to a marketing group that handles our SEO, blog and everything Google Ads. All things I can and am in training to do. Current CTRs on G ads seem pitiful at no more than 0.75%. My meta ads coast around 4-6%. During this overhaul, would it be wise to not renew our contract, and negotiate for me to take over these roles and leverage a raise?
