Today it’s a cozy space which includes a HUGE external monitor, standing table (a must to keep me moving) and a Google Home Mini (to command the lights, fan, aircon and to stop work).

The key feature is my analog to do list. For when I feel so overwhelmed, I shut all programs to remove all distractions and only depend on this list for the next hour or so. 

The Hulk figurine is to remind me not to "Hulk out"; everyone has their challenges and to be understanding of their limitations.

Xunmao, GPO]]> 2021-11-12 07:52:04 UTC https://padlet.com/GOVTECH_GPO/wfhsetup/wish/1886107980 https://padlet.com/GOVTECH_GPO/wfhsetup/wish/1886151323 My WFH essentials are Logitech multi-device keyboard, Prism+ X300 30" ultrawide (gaming) panel, and Logitech Headset.

A 30" monitor is essential for anyone working with multiple excel sheets (no more eye strains); perfect for those need to have multiple tabs/docs open for cross-reference (you can have up to 4 split screens on the monitor screen); provides an amazing experience for gaming and watching movies conducting workshops in the comfort of my chair. With the Prism+ ARC Stealth arm, I have flexibility in my setup such as vertical rotation to read papers side-by-side. 

A multi-device keyboards allows me to toggle between GSIB, ISS, and mobile phone so I can respond to people across platforms quickly and seamlessly. And of course, a headset that catches your voice clearly is a must.

Ft. desk pad from DART 😉

Essentials:
- The desk organiser

Putting an additional 27" monitor nicely into the shelf to increase efficiency. On the right side, is my private monitor screen that is used to for zoom meetings, catching news and/or relaxing in youtube while working.  Over the other side form another continent of my wife's WFH setup.

And a very comfy chair which is one of my best buys during the WFH period. 👍

-Table with height adjustment capabilities allows you to stand or sit when you are at your desk.
-External microphone which can better capture your voice and lesser of environmental sounds.
-Keyboard and mouse with RGB lights to brighten up your time working on them.


Everything I need is within a stretch of my arm only whenever I have the chance to WFH or to be at my desk. 😊😊

Notebooks are placed vertically and a compact keyboard is used to save some space. Bought the wrong speakers as the size is underestimated.

The height is adjustable and the length is great for ensuring my water bottle is always within arm's reach. A laptop raise for good posture, and a Bluetooth headset is a must so I can have a stretch and a walkabout while still being present for the seemingly endless back-to-back meetings.

And bandaged earpiece (can u see yellow tape) after 2 years of intensive use. What u don’t see is high-back chair for neck, cushion for back and Eye-Mo for tired eyes.

Ever since I converted my spare room into a WFH “office” , I was able to have physical segregation between work and personal zone. This helps me to tackle the challenge of balancing work and play time.  

My WFH essentials are my Acer monitor and my all mesh office chair :)

Featuring a pad board from IKEA for organising my PC accessories, dual vertical monitor setup by using vertical space instead of horizontal. Accommodating with a standing desk with any fatigue mat for long hours of standing. Last but not least, my crystal collection to boost positive inner aura. ]]> 2021-12-10 03:08:10 UTC https://padlet.com/GOVTECH_GPO/wfhsetup/wish/1939595537 https://padlet.com/GOVTECH_GPO/wfhsetup/wish/1939728618 Nothing fanciful. Had been a razer fan for years. So just add in some colors and features to "brighten" up the mood during work. My colleagues always hav a great laugh when they saw me wearing the Razer Kitty headset. 

And the chips are within reach so I can stress eat.
