Maybe after working for a little while can try the bike,
but traffic sucked when I there (over 20 years ago), must be worse now.

Just to piss you off, I have a 7 minute stroll to work and come home for lunch. And I'd still prefer to work from home.
In real estate it is location in our line of work it is content, I hope yours is interesting.

Yes - can be had with either dark chocolate and walnuts or milk chocolate and peanuts.

Having reluctantly moved from a desktop to a laptop at the office I had to actually unplug the blasted thing yesterday to take it to a meeting.
Upon returning I plug all the bits in, including the big external monitor I use, the squidgy little laptop monitor works, nothing on the external monitor, windows 10 says it is there, the power light comes on but no picture.
While fiddling in the setup a colleague switches the primary display to the external monitor only - fark nothing, both screens blank. Unplug the external screen and it all appears on the laptop, plug in the external, nothing. Ahh crap the monitor is dead and the laptop is pointing to to the external monitor only.
Now it takes up to 3 days for IT services to respond to a call and policy will not let you boot to safe mode, answer filch some other poor bastards monitor and we are good to go.
He gets back from holidays on Monday, I hope I can get a replacement monitor by then - extremely unlikely.

You need a docking station.

Ah a sensible response - pity they are not on the approved hardware items

There are usually Fn-key combinations (eg Fn-F8) for switching monitor configuration (I think at the BIOS level). I've used them to recover from similar woes. RTFM!
Sad but true story. My sister in law's laptop keyboard was full of gunk, so I talked my bro through popping keycaps and vacuuming/spelunking. I assumed he had the nous to power it off first. Noooo.... Switching the primary and only display to the non-existent external monitor was just one of the things his random keyboard bashing managed to achieve. :headbang:

Meanwhile, get yourself a docking station.
I am endeavoring, ma'am, to construct a mnemonic memory circuit using stone knives and bearskins.

Oh, and since clearly no one else has mentioned it, and get a docking station.

Perhaps shouldn't have said that, might end up listedlisted in the PETA files.

A colleague switched desks at work, and thought he had a dead monitor as well.
Turned out to be <gasp> the docking station monitor ports went bad!
This docking station is less than two months old....

Is using someone else's hardware approved by IT policy or have you just earned yourself a brief meeting with HR and a box with all your stuff on the way out the door.
Did you ever see history portrayed as an old man with a wise brow and pulseless heart, weighing all things in the balance of reason?
Is not rather the genius of history like an eternal, imploring maiden, full of fire, with a burning heart and flaming soul, humanly warm and humanly beautiful?

They won't find out till the next asset check and I'm pretty sure iut will be irrelevant by then. Filching a phone or using someone elses lan point on the other hand would require immediate explanation.
