    Doesn't look like a chair that I would want to fight over. Temp or not, She would be are to work with. This is what the work place rules would call "hostile" work environment.

    How old are these people that work there? At least did they learn how to share in preschool? I am glad this is only temporary for you. Good Luck

    Is it possible for the "boss" to "see" this without you being involved? This person is out of control. I hope this is only a short temp job.

    I'll bet this person likes her chair and has had them disappear before. It's one way to be sure it stays there for her return!

    I used to work with a women who was a germaphobe - a nasty one. She was my BFF's ex-SIL and had made her life miserable. If I sneezed, she'd start spraying lysol everywhere. I'm asthmatic so that didn't go over very well. I had someone mail her an anonymous note saying "I spit on your mouse." She went bananas.

    Okay -- let's take another viewpoint on this. Let's say the "owner" of that chair has severe back and/or knee problems. Let's say that after being off a day or a few days, she/he comes back to find the chair missing. When it's found at another desk, he/she tries to sit in it and someone has changed the configuration on it....moved it up or down or tilted it every which way. It takes time to get them back to the "perfect" fit. Yeah -- I feel for the owner of the chair!!! I had back and knee problems and it irritated the hell out of me that I'd be gone and return to the chair being changed....sometimes by someone that only used it for a few minutes. Would I put a chain lock on it.....NO....that's going to far. Just saying ----- there's 2 sides to every story, so don't put the "owner" down too hard.

    Don't be so quick to judge. I have back problems and purchased my own chair for work. I had to adjust it to fit my needs. To have someone come along and borrow it and possibly redo my adjustments only cause me more pain to set it back to be where I needed it for my comfort.
