  • Step 1: Purchase IBM Model M 104 keyboard and USB adapter for work
  • Step 2: Test it out writing code/documentation/long winded email
  • Step 3: Wait for boss to respond to co-worker complaints about it
  • Step 4: Suggest it was done to improve productivity and if they are unhappy with it, suggest a WFH schedule instead
  • Step 5: WFH and enjoy your clicky click as intended

This only works if you are really, really, really good at your job. Usually we just fire you for insubordination. We tell you what hardware you will use in the office. We are happy to purchase you any hardware you need to accommodate disabilities too. And we'll make sure that hardware doesn't intentionally annoy your coworkers. :)

This is the part where someone tells me we can do heavy equipment manufacturing remotely.
