What are the best arguments for allowing work on Mac in PC workplace?
Hello,
I invite your thoughts on best arguments for allowing me to work on a Mac in a PC-centric workplace? I've been summoned to start using a PC and Samsung smartphone (after three years using my personal MBP and iPhone) and am finding the task both distracting and hugely challenging to this older, less pliable brain of mine. I want to present a proposal to my employer that I be allowed to continue using a Mac and iPhone (company would provide them). I expect arguments against such a request to include the usual Apple tax cost factor and "if we let you have one we'll have to let everyone" (which will then point back to the cost factor). There will be no changing my workplace to Mac—most everyone, save our VP, is either rooted in PC, or has been fluent in both PC and Mac—so no need suggesting an office-wide shift. Arguments against might also include [problems] synchronizing platforms within the network and tech support (can't imaging that the company hired to provide this is not also fluent in Apple hardware), however I have had no issue with this thus far. I don't mind giving up use of my personal equipment (in fact, great!), but I need to convince the powers that be that this request is worth granting.
Thanks in advance for suggestions.
