I'm retired now but We bike commuters were allowed to bring our bikes inside our secure office building where we could either lean them against the wall across from the vending machines or we could bring the bike to our cubicle where I either leaned it against my case files or against the wall opposite my cubicle.

Years ago, in Portland, I parked my bike in the basement of the building where I worked at 5th & Stark, locked it to a large water pipe that came up out of the floor & ran up through the ceiling. A co-worker there had his new Cannondale stolen when he locked it to the wooden slats of a cage where foodstuffs for Hubers Grill were stored. Thief cut the slats with a saw & carried off his bike.
