New mattress arrived. It should be much better for my back than my previous one, the foldaway type I got for free from my landlord and is too soft for me. Given my current back condition, I followed my sister’s advice and bought a better mattress. When I told my boss about the new mattress, his response was “great, since you can sleep better now, you can cut your sleep time in half and work longer hours.” In which I replied, “I might not be able to wake up in the morning anymore.”
Related update. A friend was rather shocked that I’m sleeping on the floor (still am) and asked me to
use some of my “banker” incomes to get a proper bed. I don’t mind sleeping on the floor and was used to it during my university study. Besides being employed full time, my current lifestyle is pretty much the same as when I was a student. And bankers nowadays don’t connote prestige or exotic pay anymore. Those who iron five shirts on a weekend are viewed as optimistic.
PS: Just tested my new mattress and it feels like a real bed ^__^
