—”even with Herman Miller chairs”

Very few are familiar with the cost of a good office chair $$$.

Typing this while seated in my Herman Miller Ambi!

When I retired, I ask for my chair?
Anything to be rid of me; they said yes.
I used a standing desk for years, the chair was like new.

But it is ancient, my sister found two of them at the local Salvation Army store, $20 each.

Actually, I understand that point of view very very well from a business perspective, buying quality chairs that don’t break down as often – even if they cost more upfront, you pay less replacing them.

(I bought one for myself probably about 20 years ago, and it is in good shape in all respects except for… The hydraulics… I do need to either fix it or buy a new chair… So I haven’t really researched whether this is a user fixable kind of issue where I could buy a kit or something…)

I was using the Herman Miller chairs as shorthand since A lot of people who know what exclaim “Hey! I don’t even have one of those myself!”
