LOL :clapping:


The largest section of respondents cited employee searches for pornography as the most significant abuse of corporate Internet access. Most responses had employees viewing and sending (and sometimes creating in their offices) pornography to other employees through their corporate IT infrastructure. One employee used company bandwidth to run his own porn site from the office. After hours, he would sneak in models to pose in his boss’s office. Another male employee ran personal live sex shows from his office, while another portly respondent was sending out nude photos of his 400-pound plus body to co-workers.
anyone else remember those talking pop ups that went something like this;

"I have a super secret website that......"

I personally knew guys who lost their jobs because of that ad LOL

Kids, this should be a lesson to you. Self abuse leads to corporate abuse.

That's why I'm so glad that it's my JOB to surf porn sites! Heck, I'd be fired if I DIDN'T look at porn, and that is why I have the best job in the world! LOL

Exactly. My mainstream workplace friends get such a kick out of that!

My favorite was the email that went around that when you opened it turned up the volume on your machine and loudly announced that you were watching porn... LOL.... :whistling
