hardcore email monitoring

[Bulk Beef]

I am new too new here to make an educated judgement, however i also hear he is known to walk around the office giving everyone $50 in cash for having a good week.

When he hands you your fifty bucks, remember to say "Thanks, Dickhead!" 😀

Agreed

 

[Mr N8]

You better hope he doesn't monitor internet traffic like he does email.

u hsould write an email about how the vp slept w/the prez's wife, and vice versa.

also, i bet your company's email password is:

PASSWORD


AHHHHHHA

 

[Kelemvor]

I'm wondering what the VP's response was. Probably something like "It's OK. We don't get viruses here"

Agreed on both counts. Your boss is perfectly within his rights to do what he's doing; he's also a dickhead for doing it.

While that's what the law states, is that what the law should be? Should we give up our constitutional rights the moment we enter the authority of a corporate government in the same way we do when leaving the US for the authority of a foreign state?

this isn't at "Brown Brothers Harriman and Co." is it?

You do not have a constitutional right to privacy ON OTHER PEOPLE'S PROPERTY. You also have NO expectation to privacy in my house. I am allowed to snoop and monitor EVERYTHING you do while on MY property.

In other words, your right to privacy does not preclude MY right to property.

People, aren't schools teaching this stuff???

This reminds me of the idiots who cry about freedom of speech on a private message board.


If your boss snoops, and you don't like it. Leave. Find a boss who will agree not to monitor your activities.

you know... he's probably lurking on these boards now if you posted from work... he's after you now!

yeah right, they have no way of doing that.... yet. I don't know if I will tell them that there is a way to do it.

Do NOT tell them they can do that or you are really opening up a can of worms.

 

[Yossarian]

I would quit immediately if I worked for micromanaging jerkoffs like that who read all that traffic.

YOU'RE FIRED.

The VP and Prez here not only monitor every email coming into the office, but the read them and interject a reply if they feel the need to.

I received an email from an employee that his anti-virus was going to expire, so I informed him that I would be over later to install AVG as intermin protection.

The VP intercepted the email response and gave me his stance on it.

WTF!!!

hahaha, doesn't the VP and Prez have better more important things to do? Like making the damn company profitable?

Just wait for the Consultants to ask them " How much time do you think spend on scanning employee emails every week?"

It doesnt matter in a 26 person company.

 

[cw42]

are they able to track stuff like hotmail? or only stuff that requires the use of ms outlook or something like that.

 

[m2kewl]

send as them announcing a 15% across the board raise!!!

:evil:

 

[BooGiMaN]

my bosses probably get a few hundred emails everyday not to mention everything they get cc'ed on...

i doubt theyd have time to do this even if they wanted to

 

[DeeKnow]

i'd look for another job.. with heroes like that running the show, you can be sure business is not doing too well

i'd say he's still a dickhead...
even if he's a generous dickhead

 

[loup garou]

Wow...they consistently scan 26 employees' mail as well as their own? There is no way they're doing anything except that all day. That's fscked.

 

[apac]

I bet if you used hotmail or any other http service for personal stuff you'd be fine. They only have the right to read any email going through their own email server.
