38% of remote workers work from bed

The chair thing is always amazing to me. I worked at a company that had crappy chairs (because they claimed they couldn't afford better).

One of my team decided that they needed a good chair for medical reasons and asked for it. They got a really nice chair.

I don't know if anyone complained, but it wasn't long before the whole team had really nice chairs. The cost was negligible compared to the morale boost, IMO. I don't think I ever looked at that chair without thinking, "Man, that's a good chair!"

When I got a new job that had crappy chairs, I bought myself a new chair right away without even asking. Whenever I upgraded, I'd give my old one to anyone on my team that wanted it. I don't know if they cared much, but it sure made me feel better.

Now imagine if you got an office with a door!

I saw once a guy sitting next to the door in a small crammed office. He would get hit by it from behind each time someone opened it. Must've been a marvellous experience, he quit rather quickly.
