For those of us fortunate enough to keep our 9-5's and work from home, what's your setup? Show your rigs, talk shit on others or give advice on how to improve others.

Setup #1, prior to raiding the office:


Setup #2, post-frying my laptop and raiding the office:

Nice set up. I just took my laptop from worknamd opened it on the only open space on my home desk. Right now my place looks like a bomb hit it so maybe a pic this weekend.

How you doing in that dining chair all day?

The dining chair hasn’t gotten uncomfortable yet but I do miss a standing desk and proper, ergonomic chair.

I live in a 1bd apartment for now so I don’t have enough space to setup a proper desk/working area. Come October when my lease is up we’re looking for a house to rent. I will hopefully be able to do a proper home office.

My spot could use some tidying up, but it's doing well enough for me so far. Glad I took a trip back to grab my keyboard and mouse or else I would definitely have carpal tunnel right now.

The plants are a good touch. I gotta get more greenery in my space. My wife has everything outside but I'm thinking of grabbing a couple succulents to sprinkle around.

This has been my life for a while and my skateboard has been getting neglected under my desk.

Maybe I should add some decor on the wall, My actual office from work has posters on the wall that have been there since the late 90s.

1 for the work laptop and 1 for my main pc. This cam has the ring light built in as well as a microphone, it’s pretty nifty and actually has pretty good quality.

Respect to all of you for being able to do this, especially those who have kids at home during their workday… I know I sure as hell couldn’t.

 Working away from home kept me sane during the pandemic shit.

I was way too cluttered before and was given an office allowance so I switched it up.

If anyone is looking for an affordable, reliable, no-frills standing desk converter, this shit changed my life. I liked it so much that I bought one for my work desk too when I returned part-time to the office.

Easy assembly and adjustments. Make sure you also purchase the XL shelf (sticks out better to use your keyboard).
