-password to computer (because manager cannot remember more): 1234 (and that was a big fight from just 1/empty password)
-you disinfect their computers once a month because of "funny" emails from the chain of friends
-they had you at least a ransowmware in the last 2 years...

beside the link Mr Nice give you, i would search for a couple lawsuits and
their awards to get them in
scare mode.
it's the only thing working with them, the moment you start talking technical.....
My best wishes to you for having to deal with this (the year is 2016, not 1989)
Most of what you say is true...but it's worse than that; all 700+ employees have local Administrator rights and because I work for a school...if "we" (in IT) step on their toes more than they would like, they'll scream "ACADEMIC FREEDOM" and report us to the SEIU Union thugs. If we step on their toes too hard...the Union will do what they can to fire me, even though I'm Union (unfortunately) also.
