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.

A VM might be a solution for you? I have a single Windows program that I need for work. I chose a VM rather than futzing with wine because it's a solution I know will work. I just run the VM for that during work and shut it down at the end of the workday.
Second this. If you make the effort for vfio and use a 2nd monitor and a kvm (or a 2nd + kb/m) it doesn't even feel like you're using a VM.
But, if your job requires you to use their computer a docking station could suffice.
