    ...and you're still employing him WHY?

    Have an older gentleman, a doctor, who runs a recovery clinic. Brought in a laptop that someone had added a password to.


    So while working on the laptop to clear out the unwanted password, he tells me this:


    1. The password was added by accident by a security guard that works in the doc's clinic, who was using the laptop without permission. (I didn't bother to look up what web sites he was using, but I have a pretty good idea)

    2. This same security guard he had to take aside and give a good talking-to, because the guy had been propositioning women in the clinic (not sure if staff, patients, or both) to go in the back room to give him a blowjob.

    3. The doc described him as "an ugly sumbitch", which I thought was pretty funny.


    All I can say is... the doc is a more sympathetic man than I am. Bad enough the guy was using the laptop without permission and somehow added a password to it. If I was his boss and found out he was sexually harassing women in the workplace, he'd be out on his ass.


    I may have to follow up with the doc to see if the guy still has a job.

    That ugly sumbitch.

    A laptop at a recovery clinic is likely to be used for the clinic's business, and have patient information on it. As such, an unauthorized user (i.e. the security guard) using it is likely to be committing a HIPPAA violation.

      Oh, I know it. I don't believe this particular computer has patient info on it, but I'd better contact the doc to make sure he knows. I'd hate for the guy to get in trouble for something like that.

        Sometimes that kind of behavior escalates. I'd hate to see one of those employees or patients actually assaulted. I'm worried now.

          Are you positive you didn't get scammed into giving the security guard the laptop with no password? I'd call the business to verify it was in fact the doctor who brought it in, and not said security guard.

            Err... the doctor has been a client of ours for several years. I'm not an idiot.

              Is the security guard an employee of the clinic, or of an outside security contractor?
              The doctor might not actually be able to fire the guy directly, although I would have asked that a guy like THAT be reassigned elsewhere, if it were me.

                Never implied you were, was just asking.
