My only concern is the time it would take me to do it on my way to work... The worst case scenario, would be to leave my bike secured somewhere and take the metro...

If you have a flat on the way to work, don't fix the tube, just replace it. Practice will help, try it at home so you can become efficient. I am no handyman by any means, but it doesn't take me longer than maybe 5 minutes. No worries
