Well, with all the porn stories, I decided I needed to share this one.
I work for a major non-profit organization that is in the healthcare sector. We have a pool of 15 "loaner" laptops that users can check out. We don't always have time to boot them up and check them out every time they are returned - it's all we can do to make sure all the physical parts are there.
Well, one time the girl who used to be IT's Admin Assistant returned a loaner laptop and said she had been having trouble getting it to boot.
When we checked it out, we found that some critical files had been deleted. Well, we hooked up the hard drive to another PC to see if we could repair it.
What we found was.... porn. Lots of it. We're obligated to contact HR when we see it - not the user, not the user's manager - HR. Needless to say, that user was let go the next day.
So, given that we don't always have time to boot up each laptop when it's returned... how did we know it was hers, and not the person who had it before her?
Simple. She was *in* all of it.

Full of naked photos.
Of my roommate.
That she'd taken at work.
Lucky it was me that found them and not one of the IT staff. I called to ask her wtf she was thinking, and she said it got really boring at work, so she took some pics to send her finance and his unit in Iraq. "Troop morale boosters," she called them.

*needs a good LJ rant community for this sort of thing*
