The Inevitable has Happened

That would be a serious security breach where I work.

I'd have been out on my ear if I'd done that.

But leaving it lying on your bedroom floor is OK?

[NotAllThere]

I knew it

Sooner or later this was going to happen & today of all days

After a 2 hour commute I get to the office & realise that my bag is feeling a little light.

Yes, that laptop that they insist I take home with me every night is still on my bedroom floor.

Half a day of my life wasted. Happy New Year

Happened to me - home was in the UK, work in Switzerland. Found an old desktop I could do some work on, while me wife got the laptop sent over by courier. Arrived the following morning. I'm sure you could have done something similar - must be less than the lost billable hours.

If it is on his bedroom floor it is more likely to be encrusted than encrypted!!

You may want to take a look at this and rephrase that post!

No. I didn't even make it onto the floor.

I still have to be escorted round the building as I haven't had my iris/retina scan doobree wotsit done yet.

I was sent packing

Why is your work laptop in your bedroom?

Why is your work laptop in your bedroom?

I assume because ClientCo doesn't use a proxy filter

I can keep my company laptop where I like in my house.

There as client's laptops it depends on company policy.

Excuse me if I have no sympathy. AYSYCOTBAC?

I have one MBP for when I'm in the office provided by the client and my own at home provided by my Ltd, which one I work on depends on where I am (VPN certs and git remote branches is all I need)

That happened to me once. So I left the office and went back upstairs to the bedroom to fetch said laptop.
