Reading the material on other pages is cheating. I'm trying to bypass the blockade altogether, disproving its utility. Similarly, the issue isn't slipping the tor traffic through the firewall but actually installing the software on a machine theoretically configured to prevent installation of software.

Send an email or XMPP message to [email protected], or a Twitter DM to @get_tor, to receive links to download Tor via GitHub, Dropbox and Google Drive.
The download is a zip file that can be extracted and run anywhere without installation.
Include the word 'linux' or 'osx' in the body of the message to get a binary for those platforms.
Github link is easy to remember without sending an email or twitter DM: https://github.com/TheTorProject/GetTorBrowser
I'm pretty sure you can install the nix or guix package managers without elevated privileges, and thence any package that they've defined.

Nothing good can come from this.
Your employer will not applaud you for this.
You could end up getting fired or worse.
