It always helps when you are the IT guy (like me)...who am I to say no I can't look at a site.....<evil laugh>ha ha ha ha ha</evil laugh> Ok sorry about that I'm back. I think blocking sites should only be done to certain people, mainly the ones who surf the net all day and do nothing else, but I guess to be fair we have to blocked things for everyone.

Me [cuts in]: actually that's lunch time ha ha ha...
IT: and on this second graph is a breakdown of the time spent on particular sites. Hence this particular site was blacklisted.

Probably better not complaining about it when you ought to be working haha

ha ha, that sucks! i know my boss is closely monitoring web traffic in our office but since i'm a part of the IT team (technically) but am a programmer, they haven't said a word to me, yet. i also get out of the firewall quite often so that they can't detect me...
