I'm curious with how many working age people that are here, has anyone lost their job b/c of how much time they spend on AT?

Edit: Have YOU lost your job? :)

If anyone has, they won't admit it because you'd probably get a warning or something and if you don't stop then and risk your job, that's just plain stupid

Some places dont give warnings. Especially to lower level entry or whatnot.

I used to work with pc's at fast food restaurants and internet polling of data. Some places we installed and had high security, while other clients did their own installs with lack of security, and just every employee knew that if they used the pc for the internet, they'd be fired.
