Freezing Parks And Recreation GIF by MOODMAN

The time of year is upon me when I am freezing in the office. I have a little desk-top heater and when the cold really ramps up, I'll bring out the hot water bottle.

In a corporate environment, that's about as far as I'm comfortable pushing the envelope, short of wearing my coat inside. However: those two measures do nothing to solve my freezing cold hands. I end up rubbing my hands in front of my heater like a homeless person in a movie standing around a trash can fire.

I have considered fingerless gloves but again, worry it's pushing the boundaries in a corporate environment. Has anyone got any solutions that won't make me look like the Pigeon Lady from Home Alone 2?
