Desk. Desk light for Zoom calls. Headphones for Zoom calls. Comfortable chair. Eight hours a day on a dining chair will break your spine like Batman.
Get a good desk chair! Super important to have good lumbar support.

Extrenal monitor... ideally 2. Congrats!

A second monitor is super helpful.
Sweatpants, sick ass snacks, house shoes, basically everything you wanted but couldn’t afford all pandemic.
Congrats on the new job!
I treated myself to an IKEA standing desk and also a Flexispot desk bike and laptop stand. Game changer! I also have one of those standing boards so you don’t get foot fatigue (yup, that’s a thing).
I think a nice pair of sweatpants is also necessary. No one will be seeing you from the waist down so you can get comfortable.

Clip on ring light for zooms, a good chair or cushion that will help your spine, and something to elevate your laptop to a more ergonomic angle. Could be a laptop riser and external keyboard, a standing desk, or just a laptop stand.
I’ve been getting by great with this thing, and it was cheap (OMD didn’t reimburse any WFH supplies 😭): https://www.walmart.com/ip/Aluminum-Alloy-Adjustable-Laptop-Stand-Metal-Laptop-Support-Holder-Mount-Desktop-Bracket-Rose-Gold/559189345?wmlspartner=wlpa&selectedSellerId=16214&&adid=22222222228380507704&wl0=&wl1=g&wl2=m&wl3=473222995437&wl4=pla-982953392057&wl5=9021670&wl6=&wl7=&wl8=&wl9=pla&wl10=120798572&wl11=online&wl12=559189345&veh=sem&gclid=CjwKCAiAwrf-BRA9EiwAUWwKXoDo4BNNxPV43YxAOfmO9ZNaM0OlFq0eFaAQ4JY75v86ghqgHwt2lBoC7AkQAvD_BwE
Congratulations! All the above. I also got a docking station so monitors/keyboard/mouse/ can plug into one thing and all into the computer. It’s been great when I want a change of scenery and I don’t want to have to unplug 5 different things.
Depending on your living situation, it’s nice to have a space divider to put up during meetings. I got one from Home Depot. Congrats on the job.
