My workplace has hybrid system. 3 days in office and 2 days remotely.
It has shifted so, that people work their ass off during those 3 days using AI as much as possible and during those two remote days they just sit on their asses with a laptop running in the background, mouse jigger on.

A full screen PowerPoint/Google Slides also keeps your machine awake.

Yeah. Plugging in a USB device that you bought online is a risk, unless you have enough knowhow to analyse it first on your machine running a wm.
Safer mouse jigger is a small slow electric motor and some legos.

How paranoid are you if you test every USB device? OK got a new memory stick or keyboard. Gotta test it!

Plugging shit you ordered from Amazon or Aliexpress on your company laptop is a definate no no, unless you can be sure.

The company laptop isn’t mine, that makes it the perfect test environment!

We have mandatory biannual courses with a quiz on how not to be you. 😆
They really suck ass, but I see they have an actual function.

We only get a quiz that badly teaches you the very basics of how to start a fire. A lesson I learnt when I was about 5. They call it fire safety but its mostly just what does a fire need to burn.
Fuel, oxygen and an arsonist!

Did you have the course in how to pick up a cardboard box? It’s a mandatory requirement that everyone in the company has to do, even if they work in corporate.
The heaviest thing I have to live in my job as a mini PC, it weighs considerably less than my cat, I’m not sure I really needed the training.
