At a company I worked for, there was a security policy that if you left your machine unlocked, someone could send an email on your behalf offering to buy the entire company donuts. You were expected to make good on the offer.
The only person immune to this was a Dvorak user (who I believe also had the additional security layer of using Emacs as a mail client).

- comprev 6y agoI've been several places where this was the unofficial policy and saw it happen a few times. Once while the CISO was abusing someone else's computer, he forgot to lock his own. Credit due to him - he kept his word - and since he was CISO, he paid for donuts TWO weeks running. The policy worked most of the time though.
