I have a chair, a desk, and another monitor so I can have a double monitor set up. Really you just need a desk and a monitor, you can use a kitchen chair or anything really. If you work from home regularly the definitely get an office chair. You can pick up a decent desk on Facebook market place for like 50 bucks and a nice monitor on amazon for like 50 bucks. Once you have that setup, its incredible to work from home, because you can be just as effective and not have to commute. I also have a Bluetooth speaker that is nice to play music without headphones.

When I was hired, I don't recall being informed about my salary being tied to my location. My employment contract also only makes one mention of location, and says "home office" and my state. I was recently told by HR though that if I move, my comp. will be lower. Is this legal? Should I consult a labor lawyer?

In my mind, I don't recall being told this and it's not clear from my employment contract, so I feel like they're breaking our agreement, and it feels unfair.

Thoughts on what to do?

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.
