Choose your screen saver wisely
Today was my fifth day consulting at a customer’s place, where I’m working side by side with Emil, and something unexpected happen.
I had downloaded some of my travel pictures to have as a nice screen saver on my computer while it’s locked. I had a meeting to attend, so I activated the screen saver and went off to the conference room. When I came back Emil tilted his head gave me a weird disapproving look, and he uttered a small (begging) request:
You really should look over your screen saver images…
Apparently, it turned out, that amongst 1200 or so of travel pics, naturally the one where I’m naked showed up and was displayed on my nice 17-inch glossy laptop screen, for everyone’s eyes…
Sometimes I’m amazed that I can keep a job. π
That is rather a pleasant sight… To each his tastes of course but still.
ahh just thank your lucky stars it wasn't a zoom shot Robert… I guess it depends on the client relationship π
Ha! You crack me up, Robert π
What's that tattoo by the way?
I said to myself, "I ain't even gonna look", but my mouse took over!
You're so funny Robert! Great shot!
With kids, my cereal hasn't seen my naked ass in years.. I wish!
haha.. that's classic man. The maid quit right before that pic was taken too? lol
Robert,
Too funny! I was just thinking I should ask about your new job and how it was working out.
I remember that photo – I came across it on your site a while ago, but can't remember how.
A similar thing happened on a colleague's computer as he went to lunch, except it was his girlfriend that turned up naked (though with shadows in the right places).
Since the screen saver was password locked and on a loop, we just had to wait another 20 minutes or so until she turned up again.
She was a lovely lass, but sadly her picture was dismissed to Window's dustbin soon after he came back from lunch!
I'm glad you liked it. π
And yeah, I guess I and the customer have a new kind of relationship now…
Harmen,
The tattoo is actually a long story, so (being all mysterious now, to avoid offending anyone) I'd just like o say that it contains an eagle'a head, a flag, and a rose piercing through a heart and a note. Basically, symbolizing a number of things at that point in my life (I was 18 when I got it).
Scott,
Never say any maid at that place, I think. π
Remy,
Ah. that's wonderful! I'd prefer to see that as well as opposed to a naked colleague.
Thanks for that clarification, Robert.
I'm always interested in tattoos (having a couple myself).
You did a fine job shrouding it in mystery π
lol π But, how red did you turn, is there any news coverage, too? π
Harmen,
Good. Any pictures of your tattoos? π
Jens,
Ah, it takes a mlot more to make me flush. π
Hahaha… wonderful. Robert, you got some 'splainin' to do!
Robert, I don't have any pictures handy at the moment I'm afraid. I'll upload some soon π
Turns out there are actually a couple of pictures of 'em on my file system:
My right upper arm; "Artist" in Kanji (Japanese),
my right lower arm; "Truth" in Latin.
Jim,
Always! π
Harmen,
Nice, thanks for sharing!
This type of thing leads to corruption of the mind, I suppose the females might like that sort of picture. Next you'll be appearing on their office walls. π
Robert Wellock,
You bet! π
