You really don't provide enough detail for anyone to give you any real help, here's a few questions for you to answer which might help narrow down the problem:

Are you getting a good strong signal at work?
Is the work network encrypted in some way?
Are you getting any connection at all? Can you browse websites?

What exactly do you mean by "hard time getting it through"?

Can other people at your work connect to the wifi?

Audiophiles are such twits! They buy such pointless stuff: Gold plated cables, $2000 power cords. Idiots.

OOOHHHH HYPERFIBRE!

Are they using MAC addressing?, are you on the list, saounds like you should talk to your work's IT ppl if they have any
