I worked from home for 10 years without asking for a thing. Last year, I asked for a $3,000 office chair. They asked for a few weeks to think about it. I still haven't received a thing.

I personally don't feel like I need my company to pay for tools to do my job, outside of software that's priced outside of what an individual could afford. I think of the mechanics and contractors in my family who have spent an order of magnitude more on their tools than I have, and earn a fraction of what I earn.

I only asked for the chair because it was really nice and would have helped my posture, and I can't justify dropping $3k on a chair.

What chair is it? I have a stealcase leap v2 which is a little less than a third of the cost and I love it.

It was a Lifeform chair with some upgrades. It was over the top for sure. I've been happy with the X-Chair I bought for under a grand. The Leap chair came up a lot when I was doing research. People love them. I didn't find one locally where I could use it for a while before buying though, so it wasn't in actual consideration.
