How does that work?

How can the same person in the office leave his PC logged on and Outlook open while he’s not even in the office, and then two days later sit in his office all day long without even opening Outlook? What is the thinking process, is there a thinking process? I don’t understand..

Of course, I’ll have to send him a warning about leaving his PC logged on, or should I just stroll in and send the president an email from his account the next time to teach him a lesson? 🙂

    Here’s the situation. We have 3 scanners in the office, hooked to 3 machines. Two are setup in offices of people who use them quite often, and get the scanning done for just about all of the office. The third is in my office, and rarely ever gets used. (I’m not even clear on why…
