Tonnes of CP.
Told my colleague immediately as he was at the other end of the work bench, then told my manager. They called the cops who told us to leave it alone, then immediately made their way over to confiscate the PC and take a copy of the job booking slip.
Never heard another thing about it after that. We thought we might be called as witnesses or to give statements, but nothing. The cops took a few mins with the PC when they got there, asked us to log into it and then leave the room. We figured they had enough on it and the guy probably admitted it. Never saw the customer again either, and he was a fair bit of a regular.
Ages ago, I had the owner of a business I supported tell me I could remote into his computer any time that day, it would be available to me. I remoted in about 5 minutes after that call and he was amidst some fullscreen hardcore pornography. I respect that sort of move.
Pussy pics.
It was my mom’s computer.
That nobody else used.
Everyone loves cute kittens right…right?
Did you verify they were of your mom’s?
Well, I did come
Out of it, years before

Narrator: “And it should have stayed that way, but unfortunately, fate had other plans for poor u/southsamurai.”
Plot twist: they were all mom’s
Asked by a mother to recover family photos from her deceased son’s laptop. Fortunately I noticed and removed the porn folders before passing over the USB stick.
The one thing I absolutely hate doing is getting inside my mom’s computer. She’s a heavy chain smoker and everything is covered in yellow tar.
Bros delete dead Bros porn.
Unless those were the family photos?
Banjo sounds intensify
I feel this. The most disgusting thing I’ve ever had to do was clean my chain-smoking parents’ house after their passing so we could put it up for sale. I can vividly imagine what the inside of a smoker’s PC must look like, just based on that experience.
All the internals of one laptop I opened were really covered in oil, the fans were totally stuck and unable to spin (maybe the main reason why they sent it to us) and the whole thing really stank. I called the customer to ask how was that possible and to inform that those defects weren’t covered by our warranty and they told me it was used in a restaurant’s kitchen, and they didn’t understand why they couldn’t use it there.
I don’t know if it is the kind of “worst” you were thinking about, but in a previous helpdesk job I found a text file on a users desktop with a bunch of links. Asked the user what that was for, and they used it tonremember web sites. They were star struck when I showed them that bookmarks were a thing, and added their links as bookmarks for them to get started.
Sounds like the type of person who prints their E-mails
Are you suggesting that I’ve been doing email wrong this whole time?
Actual cp. called police right after that
And did they do anything about it or didn’t they, as the top comment mentions?
dont know. didnt hear anything after that
Cockroach infestation.
Not really bad, but it’s one that stuck with me: The computer owner had a bit of an obsession with David Boreanaz. Wallpaper was him with his shirt off. The desktop was cluttered with tons of image files, all him.
What year was that? It’s even weirder if it’s recent.
This was definitely the aughts.
Inside: Vomit + insects (cockroaches, I think). Software: The weebiest weeb setup (images, boot sounds, etc) to ever exist.
Yeah we had to institute a throw it straight into the trash policy because of pukey Chromebooks.
What is it about Chromebooks that attracts people who puke into them?
We exclusively repaired for schools, kids puke for like… no reason.
The most I’ve ever seen was some porn in really poor taste but nothing illegal or reeking of pedophilia.
I used to work for a company that has offices in a strictly Islamic country. I had to install something on one of those HP mini servers and found a very interesting search history. No cp fortunately, as far as I could tell. I cleared it and told my boss, but since we were going to get rid of these office servers and moving everything to the cloud I don’t think anything ever came of it.
Imagine watching porn on the company server.
Anyway that night I had dinner at the house of the manager in whose office the server was installed. It was a very traditional dinner where the women served the men and stayed in the kitchen otherwise. Strange experience altogether.
Self-shot nudes on the desktop.
That’s what I call a true customer relationship.

Lady at the company I did IT for had her work computer desktop filled with cringey memes she had made about being a “Trump Girl”, “Guns, God, Glory” “America First” etc. Her social media account was logged into on there as well and was all a bunch of boomer pro Trump memes and Religious stuff.

Had to awkwardly tell somebody that I needed to use a different keyboard to work on their computer because theirs was so disgusting. It was filled with dandruff flakes, several of the keys stuck slightly because of the thin coating of grease from all the food they ate at their desk. Hair bits stuck up from the keys, it was absolutely nasty.

Not that this is the only thing that matters here, but did she agree to let him use that as his background?

Gay porn… the guy was my boss.
Don’t judge. Some people are gay.
I am not judging anything. But (gay) porn on a corporate computer, I mean…
tho specifically mentioning its gay around something with a negative connotation could pretty easily be roped in to seeming like the gay also has the negative connotation (even if not explicitly said), so some people might not fuck with it
(idrk personally, just thought I’d let you know my vibe)
Does everyone download this porn. Don’t you just use pornhub and that’s that. Who saves porn?
