100%, costs around $500

Also look into wireless headsets and walk during calls. I don’t tend to turn on video because I pace, but if they insist, I still walk around. If they want to look at my office walls, they’re welcome to.

It's worth spending a little money to get something that doesn't wobble. You're going to use it every day.

Flexispot electronic standing desk.

I have one but it doesn’t reach to other rooms. What headset does?

Mine is an older model, but this it the same sort (and the cost has gone down) https://www.amazon.com/Logitech-Over-The-Head-Wireless-Headset-H600/dp/B005GTO07O/ref=mp_s_a_1_14?dchild=1&keywords=logitech+usb+headset+wireless&qid=1615481144&sr=8-14

Home office preference question. I am getting ready to redo the layout of my home office. One option I'm considering would have my desk facing a wall. I am wondering if anyone with this current setup has any feedback about it. I would face the wall so that I would have a better background for video conferences (am on about half the day) and also my cord situation would be cleaner.
