Today, yet again, I got to my desk at work at 8 AM to find my laptop turned on and porn sites opened. Weird porn sites. I have no idea who is doing this, or how they have access to my office, or how they got my login password. HR thinks I'm making this up. FML
MymB612 tells us more.

Hey everyone, OP here :) Thanks for the funny comments, it IS a weird situation, you have no idea what it's like to try to convince the HR lady that "**** site were appearing on my desktop and I have no idea who is doing it or how it's being done" :P Let me clear a few things up (since the debates were polarized around change your password / install nanny cam / take laptop home): 1- Our login passwords are company issued and the IT change them every 6 months. If I want to change it I have to submit a formal request to the HR department, and since the lady didn't believe me back then, it wasn't an option to change it. 2- I did think about the nanny cam and wanted to get one so i could catch the culprit but the situation was solved before i had a chance to do that. 3- About taking the laptop home, not an option since they are extremely stingy and attached to their stuff (we actually have to send a friggin' email if we want pens or paper...) so they would have had that "HOW DARE SHE" look if i had suggested it :P Turns out the HR department got another complaint of the same nature from an employee from another floor, and since there were now two complaints they decided to investigate, and lo and behold, the most typical of twists... IT WAS THE JANITOOOOR They haven't said much yet, like about how he got the passwords (i'm guessing mopping behind us while we log in or something, we never really thought to notice if he was looking) and obviously he had keys. Still don't know why he picked our laptops, or why he didn't just look for **** elsewhere :/ or why he didn't just close the windows when he's done or whatever... Hopefully we'll find out more. So there you go :)

Why don't you just take the dang thing home? It is a laptop after all.

It's a laptop. Bring it home with you. Problem solved.

Looks like someone is eager to get you demoted or fired. Change your password possibly? Get one of those thumbprint readers required to log on, might be money well spent, especially if it saves your job!

I would start having a hidden camera somewhere pointing towards your laptop.... Or do a stakeout in your office and catch the pervert ( even have a camera on you to record)

Put a hidden video camera. I used one for my babysitter to see how she treats my child while we are at work.

If you can't take the laptop with you, take the ethernet cable with you! Surely the company allows that?

It's always the janitor.

Sounds like a dirty game of Clue. It was the janitor in the office with the laptop.

This is easily one of the most hilarious situations I've ever read.

Maybe the janitor was logging into those **** sites to annoy and get you in trouble.

Be careful, I've seen enough Triller movies to know where this is going ;)

Did you put a penny in the door?

#137 my thoughts exactly. Was going to say same thing. And to OP. how about letting us know what the outcome is. I'm thinking a new janitor.

#161, awesome scrubs reference. I was going to comment something similar, but you beat me to it :)

Same thing was happening at my work. It turned out to be night crew and the morons even printed up pictures and forgot them in the printer.
