It's ok. This one's only advisory. But with you making that comment, I'm beginning to suspect you're not who you say you are...

Your repeated assertion that "no company would allow that"

Where exactly do you think I said that?
Can you not read?

Always cover your arse!

1. No matter what the situation always send an email to someone at client co outlining the situation.
eg: Hi CEO, for the record, today I have just started using laptop asset number 666 and noticed it is full of nude photos of squirrels.

2. Keep a manual diary of all events.
eg: Notified HR of photos of nude squirrels on the laptop

If you're a real contractor, you should be using your own equipment. Does the client supply the hammer when the maintenance man goes on-site?

When my drive was done I supplied the contractor with a breaker (forgot to bring his.) Fairly certain that didn't make him my employee.

Billy doesn't bring his own bog brushes on site, but he's still an independent contractor.
