Very true.

OP also said, ".......it does lose it's novelty after the 12 or 13th time that shift...."

If it kicks in every 30 minutes and it's kicking in 12 or 13 times a day sounds like OP is never in his office anyway.

Why would one want to leave their PC up and logged in and unattended for 75% of the working day?

FWIW, when I worked for CA our IT had a policy about after hours work.

They would patrol the building with a cart and any laptop found unattended would be confiscated.

You couldn't even go around the corner to the copy room to pick up a printout without locking it up.
