I had my laptop dock/hub break, and applied for a replacement, and was denied because supposedly that's not approved for work-from-home employees.
I told my employer that I wouldn't use my external monitors or mouse because they didn't provide methods to use those with my USB-C only laptop.
They decided that giving me a replacement dock/hub was in their best interest.

Even better was they suggested I buy my own (using my money) and expense it after the fact.
Told them fat chance because it wasn't approved and I did not want to risk/front my money for the company.
