Post a pic of your current home office.

Learning all the set up here.  PC setup with all the stuff, dongle attached AND working, video conferencing is all working, and most of my files are accessible.  One of our databases is not loading.  I have a feeling this is due to slow web access.  Not sure.  Will take a pic tomorrow, as I am organizing it all and it's a disaster right now. I've never regretted our tiny home, until now.

Databases can be very touchy about connection speed, especially depending on what database system it's in.

You forgot to put the Ketchup back in the fridge.  Right now isn't the time to be wasteful.

I haven't decided what do do with it yet.  It's Jalapeno ketchup.  It's from one of our customers down in your neck of the woods - Red Gold tomatoes.

Yeap, Indiana Tomatoes.  I drive through Elwood often, just a bought half way between my parents and my house.

Mine is horrible. I am so uncomfortable. So not ergo. At least I have a job. 
Tiny home, no office, no desk 

I am not Batwoman. @Wilbur

That is nice!  A little more space is sometimes nice, a little more mortgage, not so nice!  Be happy!  You could be on the verge of a cardboard box under a bridge like many Canadians/ Americans.  :)

If I had to work I have several options. We actually have a nice office that is pretty much just a storage room now with a great big steel office desk and a bunch of file cabinets. My computer quit working on WiFi one day and rather than mess with it I moved it out to the family room and plugged it into the modem. I’ll try to remember to take a picture tomorrow.

Me too...., not liking sitting at my kitchen table, or my laptop keyboard or not having my two monitors.  I am feeling it after just two days

Sorry, I just sat at this thing most of the day and my back hurts and my neck hurts.   Just didn't feel happy, as I typed that.  I am hurting.  Not much I can do about this for now.

I'm a long way from a cardboard box.

You are one orange crate away from a very trendy stand up desk.

I wonder if I could swing that.  I tried one, and it make my ankle hurt.  Maybe I can try again.  

I've been typing with my keyboard on my lap.  The table is too tall.  I am going to try sitting on a couple of pillows to make it a little better.

I got the database working.  I had to use a virtual desktop from my work.  

Learned a lot over the last 2 days.  At one point, I was so frustrated, I wanted to cry.  I walked away for a while and tried again, finally figured it out.

You need a fancy stand-up desk like mine. $20 and 1 roll of TP and you will be stylin'. Think about it.

I use a plastic folding chair, it sucks.  I was no more prepared than the federal government.

yeah, no good.  

Laptop or desktop?  I wanted to use a laptop, but they told me to take the desk computer.  A laptop would have allowed for more comfort, IMHO.  Hopefully, this will be back to normal soon.

Hard to be prepared when you don't get any real data until the last fucking minute.

I have a company laptop.  It is ok, but I can't watch porn on it.  You can see how this is a problematic arrangement.

You could have made a little money if you bought at the alert and got out quick.  I do not trade, was just looking at stocks that were up this morning while checking in our platform.

Yeah, I don't know shit about trading.  I let someone else take care of that.

@Old#7 that’s my kind of home office. Office with a view. I wish I had brought home one if the pc computers with InDesign and PhotoShop so I could do some design work. I’m content with just getting caught up on grades and reading, though. This room used to house both my desk and my weights and bench. But I sold off the home gym and replaced it with a sleeper loveseat so we have more sleeping space for grandchildren.

I thought it looked different! I forgot the weights used to be there.
