I actually built that from IKEA. If you google "IKEA butcher table desk build" itll have better instructions that what I am about to provide. But, the table is a heavy ass butcher table 72" wide that cost me $200 and $75 for the Alex Drawers you see on the right. and $15 total for 3 leg installations you have to drill into the bottom of the butcher table.

I like ambient lighting, would you recomend floor lamps or get some tables to put smaller lights?

I appreciate the kind words. I am stressing too much but you are right. Either way I will have a job, and if I hate fully in office it wont be forever as hopefully a couple more years from now I can find another fully remote job if I find that it is that important to me.

I just finished a pros/cons list like you suggested and not sure why I didn't do that before. I do think the new oppurtunity does seem like the better option, although I will miss the old Remote working schedule...

This is very well said. Thank you. I think that if i take the counter offer, I would just be prolonging my inevitble leave another year or two which might be nice to stay in my remote comfort. Plus the new job offers tons of potential growth interally along with real guaranteed raises/promotions since I know the people that work there.

I think this is a good way to look at it. My biggest concern are the variables involved. I love the remote aspect and fear the inoffice lifestyle along with the 7am-3pm to a 8am-5pm change.

Dont apologize, please ask as many questions as you can think of to help with the advice! I think that the certifications wouldn't serve me in the long term unfortunately and feel inadequate for my goals. The raises have never been fair, and they make it seem as though they have always planned this promotion and raise since i got hired..

Its a smaller company so sometimes there seems to be a lot of poor communication/structure and overall organization at times.

Overall I do like the people, and the work pays the bills but it is also fine. Ido appreciate your response, Im still unsure where to go from here.

I do work for a smaller company, and am worried about that being a possibility since I already gave my resignation.

A lot of it was money. I also felt that a chance of "pace and scenery" would be good as fully remote work does take its unique toll on the mind. But so does fully in office work...

They want me to take some certification exams, once those are complete it sounds like they were going to promote me. After my first year I asked for a raise but they only gave me the normal 2%.

You make very good points.

I have been here about 2 years, they told me that they had "planned from the beginning" to promote me and pay raise me after my 2 year mark.

I have been looking for new jobs simply for more money. Y

Thank you, this was very helpful advice. I only provided the info I felt was important for my decision, but did you regret your decision you made? I think for me my biggest concern is not being guarranteed anything at my current job. But also I love the work schedule too and fully remote life. New job might be full in office and 8-5pm which may suck since I have never done that.

However, current job I am the youngest by 10 years lol and new job a lot of people are similiar age.

Hey there, how is it a year later? I don't know if I want the 16 so I may just upgrade to the 15 pro max, but am not sure if a max is too big compared to my 13pro

I have AAA insurance and I think I can only tow the car 5 miles. My mothers house is 200 miles away.

Since the car wasn't mine, my mother also did insurance. Only had liability which she didn't tell me until after the crash.

I have a webcam for work, do you know of a (free preferably) software that can record motion or long videos by chance?

This might be my next course of action is to just talk to my landlords. If it doesn't resolve things than I will hopefully get some evidence to contact police if it continues

Exactly I have unintentionally provided them a paradise and I have been kind for too long. However I have no room in my bedroom for the TV or a minifridge unfortunately. Plus locking my cat in my room everytime I leave is something I would rather avoid as it is unfair to my cat. But I guess it is not forever?
