Presence in odd places — loitering in departments unrelated to their job description
Using others' desks — could indicate their use of others' PCs to commit crimes
Behavior — actions not congruent with their job description
Refusal to take time off
Refusal to allow others into their work space
Refusal to share data with others
Desire to work alone, without assistance
Refusal to accept help, even when overloaded with work
Refusal to allow audits
Excessive conversation about gambling
Unstable personal relationships
