Apparently, the PC I was given by my employer less than a year ago is too out of date (uses Windows 10) and I have to have Windows 11 now for security reasons. I have a gaming PC, but it’s my partner’s, too, and it’d be a huge waste of its power and graphics card, plus it’d have to be moved. I really don’t want to do that.
A new company owns the company I work for now, but still. This is not what I agreed to. Ugh. I’m so annoyed.
It’s not that expensive, really ($200), but it’s the principle of the matter. How long will it be before they force me to do this again, anyway??? I already get paid a shit wage.
You are under no obligation to use your personal equipment and I wouldn’t.
Who owns the company PC you are currently using? How much is it worth? Likely it’s part of the corporate IT fleet and is covered by a support contract. What does that cover? What happens if it gets damaged, who pays for what?
