Not directed towards any member of this forum. Just my 2 cents on the subject.

If you're playing around on the internet doing whatever while drawing a wage on your employers real estate then yer sorry ass ought to be FIRED on the spot.

Again, just my 2 cents.

I routinely go through computers at customer sites and take off software packages that don't relate to work, telling the users that of they don't like it they can punch out and go home... They are at work to work, not take advantage of their employers... Those employers are totally aware of what I do and are in 100% agreement... See, I'm a mean bastard everywhere, not just here...
