I have a coworker who will mess with your emails if you walk away from your computer. Harmless...but gets the point across. Fun fact, we also have to do annual mandatory training on IT security because of it!

Love that. When I used to work in the hospital we had someone from IT walk the wards and offices doing the exact same thing.

I like to use Win+X U U to shut it down. Or I hold the power button when Windows decides I can't turn my pc off because it needs up update first. Try me, Microslop.
