Lock your computer and let HR know.

Someone took some of my equipment off my desk yesterday and I sure as shit let HR know because I could do half my job without it

Would HR frown upon you leaving a word doc open with

“Hey cockbag, stay off my fucking computer”

If they do, file a harassment case against him for leaving threatening messages on YOUR computer

Since I always locked my computer, when I got up (pull out my CAC), it would not bother me.

Why is your screen unlocked with you away?  That is really bad.

I lock my workstations when I walk away.  Heck, it's policy.

Same here. If a open PC is found, a letter of resignation is sent to me and CC to Administration as evidence of open PC with PHI access.

I don't think anyone has said it yet, but you should lock your computer when you leave your desk...

Huge letdown in this thread.

Buncha dipwads who skip reading the four f’in pages of “lock yer puter”, and post “lock yer puter”.

Not nearly enough anti-seize or dogshit on a fake mouse. Sad

Should be fired for not locking your computer.

Damn fellas. I’ve had jobs that require computers since 1989. I’ve never worked anywhere that suggested, much less required computers to be locked. Do you guys have launch codes or something?

Btw, OP is yours the only computer this clown snoops in? That would seem like a firing offence if somebody isn’t asking him to do it

Parent company is a very large university with lots of research grants.
They have a very strict IT policy; computers self lock in a few minutes, passwords need changed often.

lol. Anyone that walks away from an unlocked computer around my job will only do it once....

The email to the boss would be enough to change that mindset.

Doing that at my job would get us both fired.  Me for being stupid, you for sending an email as me.

Click on the window icon in the lower left corner, click on the icon of the little man that represents your login account and click "LOCK".

He can't look at kiddie porn if you secure your computer.

I was curious if people would say something like "Go to HR about that shit" or "I'd tell him to Fuck off"  or if they would say something realistic like "Who the fuck sits down at someone else's desk and looks through their computer?"  But NOPE, instead it's "Lock your fucking screen!"

@rfox Yes, of course you should let HR and management know.

For all you know, he could (1) be downloading child porn, or (2) be downloading or mailing out company confidential information, or (3) be ordering illegal drugs, or (4) be doing any of a few dozen more illegal or firing-offense activities.

If you don't report it, the company, and police, and prosecutors, and your future cellmates, will think it was you.

Back when the internet was still young, a coworker got the resign-or-be-fired treatment because he was watching porn all the time at work.  Even though he was in a shared cubicle with multiple female coworkers.  And although not explicitly stated, from comments they made, some of it was child porn.  Apparently he was too dumb to know that the company tracked and logged people's internet activities.
