Herman Miller Embody off of Facebook Marketplace

I have Herman Miller embody, but i paid full price. Frankly the cheaper chairs out there caused me more problems in the long run, that's why I gave in and put serious money down.

You can get some refurbished Herman Miller stuff for $500ish, just have to look for it.

What’s so great about HM embody?

Yes that's one of the reasons I hated my last chair, terrible cushion. Now, I may still be sore after billing 12 hours (who wouldn't be) but with the embody, those really uncomfortable pressure points aren't an issue.

HM should really pay me for all the free advertising I'm doing.

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!

People who don’t submit their time daily, how do you remember what you did and for how long?
