I've always done this as well. It was policy at one finance job, and it just stuck after that.
Then I had an ex-girlfriend get quite upset with me for always locking my computers when I was away from them.
- harlanji 6y agoLocking computers while away in a locked office is like using PRs on a high trust team. I’m not arguing against it, but it’s one of the earliest deep feelings I had about office policies. Locking the screen in a high trust environment communicates and disturbs the vibes. Should work be high trust? Plenty of people would leave my body in a dumpster for saying yes. I’d trust a co-worker before a girlfriend though (ie. Pre-marriage, non-contractial partner). I can follow policy as it relates to contractual home partners.
- rkangel 6y ago> Locking computers while away in a locked office is like using PRs on a high trust team. In our office it is encouraged because we work on projects for multiple different clients. In some cases competing clients and we are required to partition the knowledge internally. Even if it isn't quite that serious we try to keep detailed information about the project inside the project team.
- BoiledCabbage 6y ago> Locking computers while away in a locked office is like using PRs on a high trust team. Making sure I follow. You're saying 'trust' within your team meaning they have all good intentions and 'trust' meaning they never overlook anything or make a mistake. So as a result you don't do PRs?
