    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.

    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.
