Your work sounds like it has no IT Security department and no HR department
Lucky you. I got told by our IT that I'm going to be their windows 11 sacrificial lamb and will be getting it before everyone else to bang out the quirks. It doesn't pay to be known as the office nerd :(
My elderly father's win 10 computer has been absolutely shoving the upgrade down his throat, and I'm about ready to give in and just do it. Telling it to stop notifying him does no good, it just comes right back the next day. Then he won't touch the computer because the full screen upgrade ad freaks him out and he's afraid something is wrong. Screw Microsoft.
I mean...who are you kidding, you probably will.
Is it your laptop, or is it their laptop? If it’s yours, you have every right to request that they issue a corporate laptop if they need you to use Windows 11 to do your job. Otherwise, it’s time to grow up - it’s not like they’re forcing you to commit an OSHA violation.
