I have a herman miller Aeron and a Steelcase Gesture. I highly recommend both.

Lol I have no regrets since I bought my Steelcase four years ago and it was a lifesaver during pandemic. I switched jobs and got the Aeron at almost $900 off brand new.

For cheaper option, I was using Ikea chairs before and they were fine for a couple years.

I agree on the Aaron. My wife wanted chair for looks. I wanted for comfort and won.

Less of an office chair but I have an AKRacing gaming chair that doubles as my work chair and it’s very comfortable.

I have the Autonomous MyoChair with head and leg rest. Seldom use the leg rest but having the head rest is nice. I’m happy with my choice, but for a little extra money I’d consider getting their ErgoChair.

The Amazon Basics ones are actually really good. Have them in about every style. For the price, they can’t be beat.

You can get a used Aeron for the price of a good chair. They have a 12-15 year warranty and built like tanks

Gaming chair off Amazon.

Hey! Any Google folks know if it’s possible to negotiate fully remote if a contract role is hybrid? Personally, I don’t want to relocate and go to the office on a contract role given the current economy. Plus, I’m assuming contractors are the first to go in layoffs. I just think it’s a fair trade off if I’d be allowed to work fully remote. I’m also trying to have flexibility to manage my Airbnb business in a different country. Same time zone as the home office if I’d travel weeks at a time.

https://ergochair.co/collections/chairs/products/ergonomics-mesh-chair-w-adjustable-headrest-and-armrest?variant=32511617597491

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.
