As some of you may remember a friend of mine works in a small software company of about 15 people. Well one of the people was fired a little while ago for having a whack of porn on the network drives and burning it etc. etc. I think firing is a harsh penalty for this, but that was the company policy so unfortunately it happened to him.

Some of the people in the office were laughing about it when he left, one person who I'll call Mr. Moron. He laughed along with everybody else. Turns out that not only does he play computer games sometimes at work during office hours but also has several porn movies on his comp. He is a middle manager. Well, it was found out and today is the day when its going around the office, so unlike the first guy this guy had all the warning in the world. What a moron!

Forgot to mention also that after the other guy was fired a company memo went around about porn.

At work here you usually get a few days off for the first time, then they usually fire you if you get caught again.

I know one guy that got 2 days off then he was dumb enough to do it again andhe got the boot from a 50K a year job just to look at some boobies.

You have to get caught looking at it too, as multiple people (as many as 15 , or who ever passes by) use each PC so just because it's on a drive doesn't mean much as when you leave your machine someone can come by and load stuff while you are gone so they have to phyically look over your shoulder and see you do it.

All to say, it's hard to get caught so if you do you must be looking at it 24/7

Skoorb: harsh? anyone who dares view porn and has the cojones to store it on my server gets fired no if's and's or butt's <forgive the bad pun>. Seriously with or without warning who is stupid enough to view porn at work.

pr0n is bad for your career... simple as that.
work = work, work != pr0n, work = surf the web :)

Around here I hope noone ever gets in trouble for that. There's 3 strip clubs within a couple miles of my work. I hear they have good lunch specials.

<< I hear they have good lunch specials. >>

As strange as that sounds from what I understand the places that offer lunch do have good food.

But would you wanna go back to work smelling like strip club after you just had that lunch special?

Went to a club with a few friends and took this one guy's parent's Blazer. The three of us come out reeking of strip club (if you've been to one, you know the smell). So what do we do in our inifinite wisdom? Sit in their driveway and drink a couple beers so the car smells of alcohol instead. Long story why we used the truck.. Basically, it was between his 65 Mustang, my cousin's Bronco that go like 6MPG, or that Blazer.. strip club was 30 miles away (small town Indiana)..

The only reason we went to the club was because they had been there a few weeks earlier and a midget stripper was working. They wanted me to see something odd while on Spring Break. Unfortunately, she had quit the week before so I missed out.

Perry: you sound like going to a strip club was an embarassing thing. Hell I go to strip clubs all the time. Sometimes I am just not in the mood to put up with all the little club whores at the regular clubs, IMO they are usually less reputable than strippers.

There's a strip club about 3 miles from my job that has &quot;lunch.&quot; Everytime I drive by to go get seafood (right next door) that place is packed. I always kinda thought it would be weird for a professional to go back to work smelling like a club...but to each his own!! :)

Not, not embarassing. We didn't think the guy's mom would have approved of us using her truck to take us to a strip club.. I actually like going every now and then. Nothing like sitting back, having a couple beers with your buds, and watching some live entertainment. Don't get a table right by the stage and ya don't gotta tip.. All the lap dance offers do get somewhat annoying after a while though.

I know what you mean about them hounding you to get a lap dance. At one club me and my friends were offered 6 lap dances in about 10 mins. Depending on what type of your club at, things could work out. Last year, I was in a strip club on 54th street in New York city, (right across the street from the old Studio 54), and I got a $50 private dance that included an HJ if you know what I mean:D:eek::Q
