There's ALWAYS someone watching over your shoulder.... the big man upstairs, remember ?

I can't STAND anyone looking at what I'm typing - be it at a forum, in an email, a piece of code, or something in Word. It's one thing that bugs me at School - teachers insist on looking over my shoulder to see the laptop screen... it's almost too tempting to do what I do to anyone else, and click 'Show Desktop' so they can't see what I'm doing.

I don't mind it that much when someone's watching over my shoulder, but I will ask myself the question as to why he is watching over my shoulder. What is it that I do that makes he or she watch?
The only thing where I DO mind someone watching my shoulder is when I send someone a PM (more personal) or an email. I refuse to type anything if someone is watching then. |

I dont mind at all, In fact I enjoy it when my wife reads a few posts with me. The kids love some of the sigs (willows, Lady z, yorick) and are often here while i post. The computer is in the rumpus (games) room with all there toys.
The bit I do have a serious problem with is when my inlaws are over. He reads my private word documents and such which pisses me off greatly. I dont password protect because i think it fair that my wife has total accesss to me and my thoughts and actions. Honesty is vital in a relationship.

Dude.... THE EGG IS BACK! I love it.
Anyway - as said, this is a public message board, ANYONE can read along without you knowing. Some people (on other boards I visit, mostly) seem to have no grasp of the concept at all that people are rteading everything they post, and that these people may not necessarily post something themselves. I saw someone here say that it's not so bad since we're all a big happy family here and know each other but that doesn't take into account all the lurkers that visit the boards - people who only read and don't post. So unless your board is password-protected, you should consider anything you write as open to anyone on the world with an internet connection. That doesn't bother me though, I keep it in mind when I write here, and only post things that I am comfortable sharing. So in that sense I don't mind people reading over my shoulder either, although it can be annoying when you're trying to concentrate on a difficult matter in a serious debate or somesuch.

Feeling uncomfortable at people looking over your shoulder generally is more to do with invasion of personal space than anything else imo.
