An Ecdote from Work
So, we have these two guys, do basically the same job (one works for the other). They have the same software, but the boss’s floppy drive controller (on motherboard) is going, and we can’t reinstall this software because it’s got a floppy license-key disk — not a problem, really, because we can clone his employee’s drive.
I wanted to give him warning, let him clean up his drive, etc. But he was out yesterday and we’re being pressured to fix this, so we went ahead and cloned it yesterday In the process we found the pictures he had on there — you know the ones of his wife and kids. Early pictures of his kids.
Ones taken while they were being born.
Tomorrow we get the exciting task of installing nudie pictures of his wife on his boss’s computer.
Thankfully, it’s all in his profile/My Documents folder, so we can delete them mercifully unseen
And yeah, I know that birth-pictures and nudie pictures aren’t quite the same thing. Neither really belongs on your PC at work. Not that we have a really restrictive policy — if you could put the picture on your desk, it can be on your desktop, as far as I’m concerned.
