I close my laptop whenever I walk away. You should sleep yours

I would lock the computer first. I would probably also let my boss know. Its company property, so unless the manual says he can't do it, they probably can't do anything about it, but I bet they would want to know about some guy creeping on everyone's computers.
Unless the policy is always lock the computer. Then I would keep it to myself. |

What the fuck did your officemate do when a nonIT or boss walked into his office and started going through your computer?
|
|
Definitely start locking your workstation....
....but first I would teach him a lesson. Could be fun. Some disinformation about him sniffing the bosses undies should make things interesting. |

1. Open notepad.
2. Type "Fuck you XXXX. Stop going through my shit and mind your own damn business." 3. ????? 4. Profit. |

The policy at my workplace is to lock your computer when you leave. They force the screensaver after 6 minutes of inactivity.
In 2010 I was contracting for Salesforce. If someone there found your computer wide open, they'd send out company wide e-mails making you look foolish. They called it dorking. I called it stupid. I'm pretty sure they still do it today. My current company started doing something similar. One day in front of my manager, I locked the screensaver on a co-workers machine. I said "I'd rather support my co-workers than sabotage them" No one ever tried to dork anyone again after that |

Also punch fuck nuts that you share an office with for not telling you sooner.

If you are going to lock it, at least change the lock screen background to something that says "Locked because XYZ is a nosey asshole that keeps going through my stuff."
Don't be a bitch. |

So OP, since you already know to lock the computer any time you leave now, what have you decided on for course of action against said snooping co-worker, and office sharing partner that finally just told you about it????

He can only be up to no good.
Alert your supervisor that you've been made aware that this is going on, and as said, start locking your shit down. |

Back in my day (late 90s/early 2000s tech hayday) if you left your computer unlocked you would have so much HR violations done to your computer by the time you came back you'd never think of doing that again. Now we just politely add some code that won't compile.

We are required to lock our computer if we are away from our desk. The only reason I do it is because these pricks in my office will change my desktop background to a giant dick.

Leave a note on your desktop. "Dear Nosy Butt, I took a dump this morning and didn't wash my hands after I wiped. You're welcome."

One of my co-workers told me yesterday that another co-worker, periodically comes to my desk if I'm away, sits down and browses through my computer windows. This nosey bastards son also works here and his son sent me an instant message yesterday morning asking how to do something in our engineering system. I explained how then minimized the window. shortly after that I had to go to our metal shop and when I returned to my desk I noticed that the conversation was open again. Now if the son had responded to my message, the window would re-open, however there was no response from him. I thought that was odd and made mention of it to the guy I share an office with when he told me that this other guy periodically comes to my desk, and if I'm not around, he sits down and peruses through my windows. This guy isn't IT, or my boss. He's just a co-worker in the engineering team. I asked if he does it a lot and the guy says "Yeah, pretty often. Maybe not every day but it's probably almost every day." What would you do if you were me? |

Make up a fake email between you and the boss talking about how you can easily take over Nosey Guy's responsibilities when the fire him on Monday. View Quote Shame on all the other posters previous to this (except for the superglue mouse dude). There would definitely be booby traps. I had issues with someone using my stool at the shop and not returning it. Somehow, a very sharp and pointy stainless steel shaving worked its way into the cushion on top and was sticking straight up. Don't fuck with my shit. |

Game cam and lock your puter.
OP, do you leave your car unlocked and keys in it when you park? |

OP, leave a message on your computer for him. "Hey Tim, I don't mind you snooping thru my computer while I am not here, let me know if you need help finding what you're looking for?"
Or you could just lock it. |

I shared an office once (fucking nightmare).
The person I shared with had a constant trail of deadbeat students in her office and they would constantly sit at my desk and get shitty when I came in and kicked them out (trust me, they went). Also her boss and other members of her team would come in after hours and work with her at my desk. I set a BIOS password on the machine. People would call my cell all the time at night telling me they needed help because they couldn't get into my computer. I never answered. Eventually they stopped calling. |

Get with your boss and see if he is game to play a prank
If so, start working on a document outlining how you are going to kill you boss. If he sees it, and does nothing, your boss will learn something interesting. If he sees it and squeals, then your boss can ask him how he found out. |
