I think if you don't work in a field that handles it, you might not understand how incredibly willing the average employee is to commit a federal privacy violation and share Personally Identifiable Information or *Protected* info because they don't know or think its not a big deal to.

No one really wants to know how often your information privacy is disregarded by your bank. There's good employees who personally care to follow rules they went over once at hiring, and then there's people who don't notice or care your name and financials are visible to anyone after you've left their wicket.

@Cassandra_Complex And then there's people who show their coworkers people's PII because they got annoyed by them and "Wanted to see how much of a rich fuckhead they are".

Oh yes, straight up maliciousness was rarer where I worked. However, I did have to tear someone a new asshole for accessing someone's accounts without valid business reasons before. And had to explain that insulting them while pointing at their accounts was not "valid business reasons".

@Cassandra_Complex I don't know what's worse, the malicious ones or the "helpful" PII violations. No joke I have had a tech almost doxx one employee to another because of a shipping error for a laptop and "They're close enough they can just go to their house and get it".

I've had my personal cell number which was shared for emergency purposes, given out by a tech once (I filed a complaint about this, hasn't happened since, but that user still has my number) because I was the next person in the chain to help that user and they were punching out for the day when I was already gone.

Oh man, this is bringing back all sorts of horror story flashbacks. Other employees are quite honestly the worst. Especially when you work somewhere that clients could reasonably be irritated by you, say, holding their cheque. Only to be given the time you end shift by an idiot coworker.
