The reason you can't find much in the way of resources is because there 
is basically nothing to do. If the Airport card is turned on and there 
is an 802.11b network in the area, it will "lock on" and you will just 
be on. Yes, it's that simple.

I suppose it's possible that they might password-protect the network to 
keep you from getting on, but I really doubt they will do this -- if 
they knew anything about security your office would not be PC-only!!
