Crisis time for me

[anythinggoes]

today our new work contracts came around and im really upset

as of the 9th of February we are no longer allowed to access the inernet for personal use  so that means no more day visits too the site.

then i thought well hang on i have free internet browsing on my mobile ill be ok

ha think again

a few pages in Mobile phones and any communications devices are to be switched off during work hours anyone caught using a phone or the internet will be disaplined

I am going to need to seek help i will be lost for what to do i work so fast that so that i can get on here now i will have to move in slow mo i thinks

thats bullshit, companies want you to work at the speed of light b/c of the internet/email - but they can't let you surf the web on your lunch break?

ridiculous.

obviously you shouldn't spend hours surfing the net, but employers should trust their employees.

Well you know how this country works.

All work no play as far as the man making money is concerned.

Do it anyway.? Get fired, then you can collect unemployment and have all day to play online.

I'm kidding of course.? I actually feel for you.? I'd be bored to tears if I couldn't get on the internet at work.? In fact, if my company tried to micromanage me that much, I'd probably just start looking for a new job.? Who needs that crap?

i must admit i do abuse it but in the same token i get all my work done so i can, ah well timeto learn new things to do to pass the time

there was no mention of practical jokes so ill try them instead

[Neemo]

Start drinking coffee.... Or start drinking more.


I've been to workplaces where there was no Internet access at all. I guess because they didn't want people surfing at "the workstations"....




What did people do at work before the early 90s?

Actually worked a full 8 hours or pretended while reading a magazine that was hidden underneath the paperwork.

I guess you will need to more breaks and go into the resstroom and use your cell phone to get on the internet.

In the advertising biz this was known as the golden age of advertising.  you'd put together your plan, mail it (not email) to your client and then get taken out to 3 martini lunch for 3 hours by vendors and other biz partners.

There was a lot less work and stress back then.  now b/c we have instant access to everything, everything has to be done yesterday if you know what i mean.

[Chief]

that sucks man!!!! I hope you have internets at home!

We supposedly had a new policy like that implemented at the start of the new year at my job. Got the big long corporate e-mail about it, and no-one has enforced it yet.

Side note: My boss just got fired today as well.

they don't force you to anything if you point them with a gun.
