Interesting.
when im at work, i type on "my" computer. Sure its not owned by me, its owned by my employer, but given that i've been granted its use, I take ownership of it.
p.s. who ****ing cares?
I'm no attorney but I can guarantee you that legally you never take ownership of any of your employers stuff or anyone elses just because you use it.

Yet it is yours, as you are liable for it. You may not have legal title to it, but you do have legal possession of it. Therefore it is yours subject to the rightful owner demanding its return.

I never said posession, I said take legal ownership. which you don't get just because you use the company's lap top everyday. As you stated, "the rightful owners" own the equioment. I would also think this type of law isn't even applicable when it comes to the use of office equipment and the like, that are used daily by employees. I doubt they are even liable: its not up to an employee to service and secure the companies equipment. Sure, they can't steal it, but that about as far as thier liaiblility goes.
Lets stay on point. You responded to Quadcammer. He works in the financial industry and is most likely (as his point indicates) assigned a laptop to take home and is for his exclusive use. Staying on this point, since you questioned him, and he responded, the fact is he has possession and a property right in the computer. Additionally, since it is in his lone possession, he is likely to be responsible for what happens to it.
I am responsible for my Govt assigned laptop, car, weapon, bullet-resistant vest, etc. They are "mine" as they are assigned specifically to me and I have their lone possession. I have signed a property release form for them and I must pay for them if I lose them.
Once again, this is a point of basic property law.
i laminated the card. i'm pretty sure that they're currently after me for it. :bored:
clearly not mine
You are incorrect sir. Again, I never said possesion, I said ownership. First, you presume that I have prior knowledge Quadcammers situation at work, which while you may, I do not. I read Quadcammers post, which clearly states "When I'm at work I type on "my computer..", so please, if we're going to stay on point lets do so. Quadcammer clearly states he's at work. He also shows that he understands he is not the owner of "his" computer but the "user" He merely uses the computor. Granting someone use of an item or using an item without permission doesn't give you ownership, regardless of where its used.
You could laminate the old ones. One of the reasons why you can't laminate the new ones.
Anyone ELSE have 2 SS numbers?
First, you don't own an SSN. You are assigned a SSN by the Social Security Office.
Second, if you were assigned a SSN at birth and you signed the SSA as a child (yes, that little card), you are not legally bound to Social Security under the SSA as by law you cannot engage in a contractual agreement with the government until your 18th birthday.
now i love being 2 humans as much as the next person, but wtf :dw:
