In other words, you didn't report a touchpad malfunction that was interfering with obvious and clearly stated security policies, and allowed the malfunction to interfere with your work for days/weeks/months without seeking assistance from IT?

This is not a good look, but if that's how you want to play the game of lying to your employer, fine with me!

No, because the touchpad malfunctioning has no impact on a security policy whatsoever. Not even work possibly.

If you want to lock your PC you need to lock it.
