Where to buy cute affordable work desk from? I am looking for white marble or graywash. Bonus if it has gold in it. It seems like Amazon is a bunch of scam.

Would you mind to share the link? I can find it on their website. I see some for 2k.

You could try plain boring white desk and then get some marble and gold contact paper or washi tape and do a little DIY. I’ve spruced up my desk and all my roommates desks using fun unique contact paper we found from amazon and etsy. Also did our kitchen counter with marble contact paper and for the cost, level of effort and ability to switch it up i highly recommend it!

Just an FYI and on a serious note - Wayfair furnishes the detention centers at the border for kids who were taken from their parents. If you have the means to spend a little more buying elsewhere, you really should. Even their own employees walked out in protest.

What are your thoughts on pay discrepancies based on family structure? Ex. Two people do the same job but one is paid more or given a larger bonus “because they have kids and you live alone” or “because their family is struggling”. Is that an ethical factor if both employees do the same job at the same pace, quality, etc?
