Don't touch my computer

Judging from experience, you never want your co-workers to use your computer because they always end up screwing around with your files. If you think it's located in one place, chances are, it won’t be the next time you sit down in front of your monitor.

But, it’s worse when your IT guy checks your computer remotely and asks you if you have a folder open that’s filled with X-rated files and you tell him no while furiously trying to delete the files, but end up copying them a number of times, so the files increase (from 4 to 40) with each click of the mouse and you know he’s seeing all of this from his computer and you keep on telling him that you have no idea what he's talking about while stifling your laughter from the ludicrousness of the situation and end up telling him there is no folder open on your computer (even though he can see everthing you're doing), he must be making a mistake.

Not that that ever happened to me.

But if it does, I'll make sure to unplug the server cables first.

when that happens to me, I just tell them that "Yes, I am wholey aware of that file, do you wanna see it?" Works every time.

One of major things that scares the begeebers out of me is the ability of the IT people to monitor your screen, your files, your emails, and the sites you visit. For the most part I do not have explicit files on my pc and I avoid my more explicit blogger friends when at work, but from time to time I hit on something that is NSFW.

Fortunately your IT staff seems to be "understanding". In my workplace my butt would be out the door before I could hit DEL.

Never, ever, ever at work. I probably shouldn't even be doing this time-wasting comment.

IT is just like Santa, they know when you have been good and they know when you have been naughty... and you have been a very, very naughty boy haven't you?

Yeah, I try to avoid all the "good" sites at work and be safe. But I don't keep THOSE kind of pics on my computer.

Wish I could.

Sadly, this has happened to me. Now I just don't keep anything on the work computer. I e-mail it all to the home one and then delete EVERYTHING.

I do my best to keep that off my work computer. I can't even visit blogs from work. I have actually been written up for my "excessive" internet use at work.

i used to be an IT guy. i would have to go to people's computers sometimes because they would have porn search bars and such installed onto their machines. "i don't know how it got there!" i didn't really care, i just rolled my eyes.

of course, back in the IT dept we would all gossip about these people, naturally.

Gotta say it was pretty balsy of you to put that stuff on your work computer. I'd never do that in a million years.

My personal computer, on the other hand, is full of filth.
