Lock your Mac from the menu bar

Having my Mac lock when ever my screen saver starts
can be a pain when I'm at home and I don't need it to
be locked. That is why I enabled an icon in my menu
bar that lets me lock my Mac with two clicks.
However, the process of getting this in your menu bar
is probably not what you would think. First open
Keychain Access and then go to the Preferences and
check the box that says Show Status in Menu Bar. That
will put a little lock icon in your menu bar. To lock
your screen just click the lock and select lock
screen.
