Using Gnu+Linux at work
(lemmy.world)
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).
Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

Again, who says they can't? A Linux repository works as a catalog of software (packages) where you can pick and choose what to install.
Distribution != Desktop: As an IT overlord, I can dictate what distro you use, but you can pick your ~~poison~~ desktop as long as it is compliant.
Use Office 365 like everyone else or just a proper solution that doesn't have finicky WYSIWYG.
