I understand, if sussy stuff happens, then I can leave whenever with a 1 week notice. I always have multiple options on hand and I am really not short on money at all, thank god.

Doesn't work for me, unfortunately :^(

Actually that is kind of scary, most companies supply you with a work device so it can be securely administered. That’s kind of a red flag that they accept you working from whatever you have.

I agree, they are having me work as a "consultant" for a few months if it works out they will relocate me and provide me with the equipment. Until then, I have to set up a few things on whatever machine I will be using for security purposes. It's a pretty reputable company and they are paying way more than my previous job so I am fine with it.

Thanks for all the tips; I'm probably getting a laptop.

I have access to an apartment close to where I live but it's completely unfurnished. I'll probably buy a couple of chairs and tables and set up some wifi there, that should be good enough. Thanks for the advice.

In the past, I've done hybrid work, I'd finish all the easy stuff at home and keep the hard stuff for the office, and I'd go in for a couple of days to finish it all.

I got a really good offer from a different company, and I've taken it, but unfortunately, this company only does remote work and does not provide you with any equipment. Problem is that I have a powerful desktop but no laptop, which means my options are either to buy my own laptop and work somewhere else when I need to get work done or make a partition/new user on my desktop that's strictly for work, but I am scared that its going to affect my productivity.

Any input or advice would be appreciated. Thank you.
