As some of you know I started a new job with AT&T about a month ago. I am still currently going through training.

One of the things that they keep stressing is "Do not use company computers for anything other than company business." This policy is even more strict on porn as many companies are.

We were in a new classroom yesterday. It is a multimedia room where we each have computers and video equipment. One of my coworkers was sitting at his computer and he told the trainer "My computer keeps popping up porn". The teacher looks at it, then runs a virus and spyware check. He finds it loaded down with a bunch of malware and then decides to start scrolling through the history file.

He finds someone was accessing porn links between 1:00pm and 1:15pm on last Wednesday. That was around the time everyone in that class went to lunch.

Some idiot on his lunch break came back early and used his computer to surf porn.

Why would you be so stupid? You just got hired for a new job. After spending a month in training why would you risk your job for porn, especially since they took a late lunch and the day was going to be over at 3pm?

Today they called the big guy to drive down and confirm the computers history Tomorrow this idiot gets to find out he is no longer employed.

that's pretty damn stupid...

Was the keyboard also sticky?

Originally, I thought someone just spilled a soda.

BWAA HAA HAA HAA HAA!!!!

What a bone-head!

I can't help but laugh at this extreme example of ignorance!

*dries eyes*

I was laughing all day. I just want to hear the conversation they have with this block head. I want to hear his excuse.

BWAA HAA HAA HAA HAA!!!!

'block head'

STOP IT! YOU'RE KILLING ME!

I haven't heard that one in a long, LONG time, eh!

Just google image search porn.
Then don't click any of the pictures.
VIRUS free 4tw. haha

Sinner.

Hehehe... blockhead.
*wink wink nudge nudge*


But yeah, people can be really stupid.
Proof, as if it was needed.

Last night this guy that I carpooled to work with called me at 1:22 am (horns still honking and people still cheering all over this part of town from KU winning the NCAA championship last night)and drunkenly stated that I was to never ever ever pick him up for work again because he had just quit. So I got to work this morning and our supervisor called me over and asked if my ex-carpool buddy had seriously quit or if he was just drunk and being stupid. I told her what he had told me and I added that yesterday he had a caller who asked him, when you were little, did you want to grow up to work at a call center?.

Here's the stupid part: Instead of simply saying "I quit", he drunkenly said some things about the government and some other things that my supervisor won't tell me, not even for an ice cream sandwich. The she told me that he is permanently un-hireable at our company, will be fired from the temp agency who pays us, and that there are probably going to be some negative legal repercussions as well.

The reason what he said was so bad is that we're employed by the federal government. We had to go through an extensive background check just to get hired there.

Lesson learned: Don't threaten the federal government via government voicemail. It's called voicemail because it records your voice and plays it back for whoever wants to hear it. If you must threaten them, do it in the middle of a field where no one can record it for evidence.

Okay, this is another related story.

When I was instructing in the military we had a former Army guy going through Coast Guard Telecommunications School. The system admins found he was surfing porn and sending it through email. His excuse was that "the Army let us so I figured it was okay". We were amazed. We asked him if we called the Army recruiter would he say that? He said they probably would! Ooooookay. He continued on during school, got transferred, and we found out later he was caught doing the same thing at his next unit. Simply amazing.

Porn is bad.

*steps off soapbox*

Man, he must be pretty addicted to porn if he risks doing it at work! Atleast he wasnt wanking it :o/

... or was he? isn't the whole reason of looking at porn is to get to wanking?

disturbing thought of the day...

Hypothetically speaking...

Let's say a guy has low Testosterone Levels and/or Prostate problems.

A way to combat low T levels is to have sex (See #4) and ejaculation is believed to help an unhealthy prostate.


So - if this guy has a note from his doctor saying he needs to ...um... "release" at least once a day...does this mean his work is medically required to let him surf for porn?

You, sir..
Are a genius.

*heads off to talk to the boss*

Ahh Mobase, I thought I'd find you in the "How stupid can you be" thread. :D

Ya rotten limey b*****d!!

*shakes fist*

One of my coworkers tried to kill his explorer window by clicking on that x on the right top corner. He did so because he was surfing pornesque sites and the boss came in.
As a result about a dozen window popped up, all loaded with hardcore images, some with sound effects too.
It was funny. He said he was just checking on his playboy subscription.

And I wasn't surprised to see that you'd followed him in. Nor was I surprised to see that I'd followed YOU in. *sigh*
