Thirdly, my company can print out all the websites we've been to and not only that, they can tell how many pages have come off of your printer, they are pretty sophisticated with our IT/IS people.


To tell you how anal my company is they wrote up a guy last month for using his phone in the bathroom to post on facebook, at work having a great day. Someone trying to get brownie points for a promotion, who was not at work reported it.....
I would not last a day.

I am really good at what I do, but no way am I playing little corporate tell on people games at this point in my life. Zero.

There are really strict rules about surfing the web at my workplace. No politics, no religion, no facebook, no hate-sites, no porn, no sites that have content that could potentially make any of your coworkers uncomfortable.

I work graveyard shifts and get a lot of downtime - so I pretty much just hang out on youtube and play Bloons Tower Defense. *shrug*

My work is a very relaxed atmosphere all together, so our internet rules are very relaxed. We are allowed to surf any site we wish, as long as we don't download porn. I generally stick to bfp and facebook (and the cheezburger kitteh site) cause those are my favs anyway...lol I love my job.

I access this site from work using my phone. I use the work computer for work only. I can access everything on this site with my phone except the chatroom. Whenever I try to get into the chatroom I get a message saying I need to download Java. I'm pretty sure I already have Java on my phone. Anyone one else have this problem accessing the chat with your phone. I'm using a Droid X btw. Would appreciate any tips you can supply. thanks

Nope, not ever. There are certainly corporate policies in place that say this site, due to content, would be a no-go. They will overlook sites like CNN, ESPN and even Amazon but a social interaction type website or any site that might have the chance of something that could be viewed as pornographic is, as a general rule, off limits in any major corporation. I can access the site from my iPhone but I just kind of don't think its right to access it at work; it just feels wrong and for me personally, that is kind of a litmus test I use. If it feels wrong, the odds are it generally is. I am a manager in my company and its just best for me that I not deviate from what I know would be unacceptable. The benefit - risk ratio just isn't there. I'll catch up with everything when I get home or want to check in on my phone. It works for me.

Nope , not at work. Only 2 computers have internet and its not the one I use. My Boss and our receptionist are the only ones that have it. But If i need to research sometime im free to use my boss's computer or if he needs something he ask me to go on line and get it for him. I wouldn't screw off while they are paying me to work for them and not having fun for myself. Besides, I am far to busy running from patient to patient giving them Therapy, then to be on line.

Linus would be the best person to ask tech questions about the site. He has an Ask Linus thread or you could pm him.

BFP is blocked at my workplace, so I connect to the site through my wireless mobile phone during the day. It makes reading and catching up with people a complete chore. But at least I have a little bit of my BF connection throughout the day.

I had to check 'other'. I telecommute, work whatever hours I choose, and have my work and personal computers sitting next to each other on my desk. I don't use the work computer for anything personal, and I don't bill for the time I spend doing personal things, but I can take a break from work at any time, hop on the home PC, and go anywhere I like.

I very rarely....very....rarely...have time. When I do, it's on a break on my phone.

Then again, I rarely have time to take breaks.

Right now, I don't have access to a work computer, and I set my own hours, so I go on the site when I feel like it. Or, when I feel like procrastinating, as I usually do.

In my last job, we could use email and go on personal sites when on breaks. I know, though, that they did check on line histories from time to time, and they probably didn't think too highly of my going on the site. It isn't porn, or I would have heard about it. But, they're a bunch of homophobic f-k's. Which is among the reasons I left.

Deleting cookies and history off of a pc does not erase the information which the administrator would have access to. It would be especially important to be sure to log on and off so it's clear that surfing is done on break times, not company time.
