Since the beginning of the pandemic, my partner and I spent a little more than $700 to upgrade our home office.

When I was presented with the opportunity to work from home during the pandemic, I felt a rush of relief. It was an obvious solution to my life’s problems (unemployment, lack of financial security, little to no career prospects) and I accepted the position without a second thought.
