It is amazing to me what some people try do with their work computer and work email accounts. I can’t tell you how many times I’ve walked up to a co-worker’s cubical and found they were surfing non-work related stuff or shopping on line on company time.
Two employers ago, one of the outside sales person complained of problems with his company lap top. IT did some diagnostics and discovered porn on it. The guy claimed that he had been hacked, that he had done nothing wrong. IIRC, he was reprimanded but wasn’t fired but warned that his computer and on-line and email activity would be closely monitored and restricted.
The funny thing was that our IT had put so many filters on our internet browsing that I and other sometimes had trouble bringing up legitimate websites we used for work. I in PR/HR and a co-worker in benefits were blocked from the DOL and IRS websites and one time blocked all employee access to our health insurance website during open enrollment.
Nobody cares! Quit being a conformist slave. The boss does not own employees.
Authoritarian bosses are a destruction to productivity. They over control because they have too little inside their head.
HR hires these destructive turds because HR are unskilled, unscientific, conformist snowflakes.
Instead, act human.
1) Buy your internet stuff at work.
2) Browse away.
FU loser authoritarian unskilled whackjobs.
