I have a MacBook. Its set up for wireless, it works well.

How do I make it so I can use it at work in their WiFi environment?

Loaded question because my wife set it up for our home airport, and I'm clueless about anything Mac or Apple, been a PC dude since I can remember, and all I know about computers is what you can do in emails and forums. So, Could anybody give me a step by step procedure for switching my laptop back and forth to my wifi to their wifi and back again? Thanks.

 
Very easy to do - but you may need some password/SSID info from your work before you can make the two "jive". Have you brought it into work to see what networks the thing recognizes yet?

 
No.

Its a waiting room WiFi. Appearently anybody can use it. Not really sure I need a password. Maybe I do. I'll ask.

 
The last waiting room wifi I used (Toyota of Portland) you did need one, and their internet was restricted. My corporate email client didn't work, and I couldn't visit certain internet sites. Goat pr0n had to wait.

But connectivity to that network was fantastic once established. Fire up browser, you're automatically directed to a webpage for their net security, and you're prompted for the password. It changes, as I recall.

Yeah, its Saturn of Westbrook-Bill Dodge. Although there is wifi in the shop for our reflashes and such, which doesn't work 99% of the time and we still are using the phone cord. Otto the Moose restricts the shop computers from teh Pr0n and any 'shopping' type sites, but I was told if I go wireless I'll be unrestricted to whatever the waiting room is.

I'd be using it for technical training anyways. I will get paid for all classes completed, which is dandy since its dead sometimes and I can walk out of there with elevanty hours for looking at the laptop all day long and check my forums and email anytime I want.
