If he wasn’t so damned cute he’d have a real problem on his hands.

The fact that you call him pervert because he’s watching you “work”, raise some questions on the latter.
A little elbow grease, really putting my back into it…
All the way up to the elbow? Damn that is impressive!
Sex work is work though
Some jumping spiders show signs of thinking and planning while hunting their prey. More than thought possible before some studies. Nice picture.
They’re learning…
tldr: YOU ARE PREY!!!
They also appear to enter REM sleep! Excellent video on spider cognition:
Jumpers are the best, they are legit adorable 😍
They’re cute, smart, friendly, and hunt other spiders. What’s not to love?
One of my old flats, I would sometimes see a small jumping spider staring at me from the sink, while I was trying to poop. And we’d always have to have a small discussion about boundaries, and "please don’t jump on me, I can literally see you thinking about it
Cute little shits, and they never did jump on me while I was pooping… but they always reminded me that it was an option
They are the most adorable little spiders. One time I was at the park with my kids and I had a cold drink that had condensation on the outside. There was a jumping spider on the table I was sitting at. I put down my drink, he comes and drinks the condensation. I pick it up for a drink, he retreats. Rinse and repeat for half an hour. I was so delighted, it was delightful.

Much like with a bear or a big cat attack - if it happens I’m gonna try to sneak in one last lil pet!
(Reminds me of Spaceman.)

Edit: you know, I’ve been out of work for a while. Perhaps I should write a book.
Ok, the subject was super cute so you had your work cut out for you, however technically getting a fairly good pic like that took some effort (or luck, if you took only one quick pic), gg!
Thanks!
Jumping spiders are fucking awesome. I kept one for a little while. She laid two egg sacs that both hatched successfully. Cool fucking animals.
This is klothos.
Looks like rocky
So. Cute.
Not sure where you’re located, but it looks like a hungry little female Regal
PNW - I thought it would be a male with the colorful patterns but that’s my bird brain lol
If you’re in the PNW it’s not likely a Regal. It could be a Bold? I cant see the pedipalps well enough in the pic to say for sure but I still think it’s a female just based on the big ol’ booty.
Does this help? Junk in the trunk confirmation:
Great pics! And what an awesome spood! Wish I could help narrow it down but sadly I dont recognize the markings/coloration (I’m just a hobby keeper/breeder)
You should post your pics and info to iNaturalist.org and/or arachnoboards.com
What, exactly, is the job? …. I mean what’s the position called? …
That is no pervert, he lives there.
