Well, someone had to be the first....

I just hate that it had to be me.


I was terminated for surfing Wordforge from work today.

!!!

Holy shit!

Any way of appealing it?

Dunno. Thought my machine was clean, but apparently not.

They had material from places like the gallery, where I rarely bother going.

This was found when they did a recovery on my HD after a crash two weeks ago... I've changed my password, since I suspect they came in via the damned "Remember my password" thing.

Claim it was spyware?

That sucks though.

Wow, that seriously sucks!

Good luck trying to appeal it.

Dude. That bites. That just bites. Sorry.

Lesson: Do not surf Wordforge if you have an IT director who is apparently a nosy, vindictive bitch. More importantly, do not demonstrate said director's incompetence on a regular basis.

Damn. Sorry, Bear.

I surf from work often and my defense if I'm ever called on it is that I'm doing "research".

It's actually not that much of a stretch. I've pitched story ideas that I heard about here...

!

Sorry to hear that, man.

I've already expressed my thoughts and feelings about this privately, bubba. But, I say again, if there's anything at all that I can do, you holler.

Shit, I didn't think it was possible.

I mean, you hear about it, but you always think it only happens to other people on other boards.

Whoa. Sorry to hear that

Sucks man, wish you luck!

Don't end up like Actormike!
