Work From Home
Essentials
For some people, work life has completely changed since the Covid-19 outbreak and we have been able to take our work home. Previous to March 2020, I was substitute teaching in person for years then had to completely transition to remote.
When they wanted to reopen schools in person, I was already accustomed to not having to pay rent in San Francisco anymore and wearing pj pants all day since no one can see my bottom half.
Luckily for me, I have a degree in Psychology so I trained up and became a Sales Development Representative selling construction software. Then transitioned to selling A.I. Cybersecurity for companies. I made hundreds of calls, emails and booked meetings daily, all from home.
So here are some of my purchases or things I would and plan to buy for my home office.
Sitting in the same chair 8-5pm was not comfortable and I’m pretty sure I wore my seat cushioning flat. This cushion is rated pretty high and priced decently compared to other on the market. This would have been super nice to have for my first year before I got a standing desk. Which….. brings me to my next point.
Before you go to purchase this, I would definitely ask your company if they would purchase this for you since you are working from home. I have heard of people purchasing this only to have their bosses gift it to everyone after.
Anyway this really helps make work much more comfortable to be able to alternate between sitting and standing. There is also tons of benefits that come with standing more often.
On a final note for this product: I do like it but my fiancé has adjustable height standing desk that is very nice and less bulky which I like.
My fiancé has this and I love how you save the height you sit or stand at with a click of a button.
For example, moving the desk up to your standing position, then saving it by pressing the number 1. Now every time you press number 1, the desk moves itself to the correct position.
It looks pretty baller moving itself up and down with a click of a button and if I didn’t need the extra space or just purchase my desk first, I would totally get this.
I don’t think this needs much explaining of how useful this would be. The amount of post-it notes I would have saved for things that didn’t need to be written down for more than 20 minutes…
Also make sure to check the other options out, there are also whiteboards with phone charging, lamps and different colors.
