CricketGirl Posted July 1, 2009 Author Posted July 1, 2009 ^^And all of them would get you fired. :haha: oh go on! i dare u!! i'll buy u a pint if u do! i've actually done some of them in my office but then again i didnt suprise anyone as they all know i'm the office clown anyway
Guest Gunner Posted July 1, 2009 Posted July 1, 2009 ^^Honey I don't know how you manage it, but in my firm they would just fire my ass with absolutely no problems. We are quite serious and conservative. The only thing on that lit I would contemplate doing and survive is shouting email every time. This could be funny.
Ram Posted July 1, 2009 Posted July 1, 2009 I've been caught several times browsing ICF at work (just like how I am doing at the moment..:D)
DomainK Posted July 1, 2009 Posted July 1, 2009 I've been caught several times browsing ICF at work (just like how I am doing at the moment..:D) Thats bad if they catch you like that. In my office, you are allowed to surf/do whatever you want (except porn and heavy downloads) to as long as you are delivering the results.
Ram Posted July 1, 2009 Posted July 1, 2009 Thats bad if they catch you like that. In my office' date=' you are allowed to surf/do whatever you want (except porn and heavy downloads) to as long as you are delivering the results.[/quote'] That’s good to know. I wish my work culture were as relaxed as that. My Boss is a typical, ex-New Yorker, traditionalist sorta guy. So, he follows protocol for almost everything and expects his employees to do so too.

yoda Posted July 2, 2009 Posted July 2, 2009 9. During the course of a meeting, slowly edge your chair towards the door. :giggle:
Ram Posted July 2, 2009 Posted July 2, 2009 Is the company policy no web surfing? or is it the boss' preference? What do you mean company policy? No company encourages its employees surfing the web at work. :giggle:

So if my boss ever asks me what I am doing on ICF, I can tell him that I am studying forum culture. :giggle: So, like I said, there are very less restriction on what you can surf.
