No, if you note La Luna's comment "Not that it in any way exonerates the guy,....." that isn't being said or even implied. However a little common sense goes a long way in life. For instance if I show up at a customers home and the lady of the house is in her night clothes and they're fairly revealing, I tell her I'll be back in 15 minutes so you have time to change. Nothing probably would happen if I didn't, but why not protect yourself from any possible problem. If a unknown service person is in my home I don't hover but they know I'm close by and check on them periodically. I don't put myself in a situation where I'm easily compromised. I'm of the male persuasion and do this, someone of the female persuasion needs to be even more careful, it's just a sad fact of life.

This is not derailing a thread. The Geek Squad needs to monitor their employees when they are in the companies facilities. When they come into your house it becomes your responsibility, NO ONE ELSE'S. You can't do that when you're in the shower!!!! So again what was she thinking?

Well you should have said that in the first place.
It's comforting to know that nothing would probably happen if you found yourself in that position.

Nothing untoward would happen by my action, however I do know of at least one instance of a false accusation by a female against a male service person after she let him in when she was inappropriately dressed. I wasn't protecting her from me, rather me from her. That's that "common sense" thing again. If you'd quit trying to read nefarious intents into others posts and look for the real meaning, it might help.
Edit spelling.
