Tell her to mind her own ps and qs... Straight up. ^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^
Being happy doesn't mean that everything is perfect, it means you've decided to look beyond the imperfections... unknown | |

What exactly is he/she doing? | |

she's always trying to catch me on the internet. She'll do and talk to anyone who sits behind me and peer over the little wall to see what I'm looking at. Then she's always coming over to my desk to ask me what I'm working on.
This morning, she instant-paged me on my blackberry, asking for all of my passwords to my computer and outlook, claiming that her's was on the blitz, and she just wanted to "see if her's was the only one." "Pedro offers you his protection." | |

I hope you told her that giving your passwords to her is a security violation.. Don't give them to her. ^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^

Whoa, report her! Or threaten to, at least. Tell her if she doesn't get off your back you're gonna tell the boss she's violating your privacy and making it hard to work. Jeez, psycho! I know how ya feel! I reject your reality and substitute my own.

I hope you told her that giving your passwords to her is a security violation.. Don't give them to her. I wish. but, I gave it to her so she wouldn't think that I'm hiding stuff from her. I think she's paranoid.) (But I changed the passwords as soon as I came in.) I wanted to tell her what you said, but this is not necessarily "my computer." It's my work/office computer and this PC has access to the company's email, which everyone's supposed to have access to, through me. Therefore, my computer would be a 'public' computer, except for the fact that everyone has their own computer and rarely has the need to go on mine, let alone someone else's.

one time a month ago, she left a sticky note on my monitor saying:
Why are you on Prince.org?
Remember the policy you signed. -MM explaination: I was on the org during my lunch break. (My company allows surfing before/after work and during lunch breaks.) I showed the note to my boss and she said that she didn't want to take it up with the supervisor just yet, b/c he just started here and she didn't want his first few weeks to begin with petty office drama. That's when I enabled my password function. "Pedro offers you his protection." | |

Well, a month has gone by and she's still bothering you. Take it up with the manager. If she is not your direct supervisor, then she has no right to question what you're doing and when. Make sure to clear your internet cache and history and never store any passwords. I would also clear out the auto complete section as well if it's that serious. If that don't work, then an ORG beatdown may be in order!!
Good luck mochalox. | |

She is fucking nosey.. Sorry for the choice words.. Next time she looks over at you computer have this up.. Just protect yourself.. And next time she asks you for any information have her show you exactly what is wrong with hers.. Also make sure that your are there when she logs into the companies computer... Tell her that you need to be there because you are responsible for the companies email. ^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^

I know how ya feel! It's sometime a can of worms, as the other person might claim you were losing a lot of time on the Org and god knows no one here has ever done that. | |
