Fun at the Office

I just left my machine for two seconds to get some coffee, and when I came back, there was an email on my desktop with the subject line:

"i need to learn how to lock my computer"

Some coworkers of mine who shall remain nameless think they're pretty goddamn funny, but they'll get theirs. Oh yes, they will.

  1. Oh we're so funny. At least they didn't send a note to team saying, "I love Avram." :D [Note: We do love Avram.]

  2. Why do people have to lock their own workstations? Why doesn't your network automatically time-lock your work stations? This is routine security with any client/server network. It's annoying, but necessary.

  3. I think it does lock after a couple minutes, but I was gone for like, a second. I still say it's silly to have to worry about that at all.

  4. Yo Smash -- dunno if this works for every sort of Windows, but you can hold down that dorky little Window button and hit the L key to lock your PC lickety-split. I'm paranoid and do this every time I leave my desk. You never know what people might get up to while your back is turned!
