This does bring up a valid point that not everyone can afford these things, but employers sho…

#23I move around quite a bit during the day. Living room table, couch, play room with the kids, etc. I have a portable desk I'll pop open outside to spend time with the dog. I experimented working within VR on the oculus quest but the neck strain was too much and the resolution too low. But occasionally I would lay down with the headset on and a keyboard in my lap.
