mouth 0 #1 November 14, 2003 Boss calls a meeting to inform us the State Dept of Education has sent out a directive that any school personnel caught using school property for personal use will be terminated immediately. This includes supplies, phones equpiment, cameras, and COMPUTERS. They say they are checking this through the server which I know nothing about so I'm afraid to even log the darn thing on since DZ.com is my home page. WTF...how am I supposed to spend my day at work? I miss you all. Lisa -- Hot Mama At least you know where you stand even if it is in a pile of shit.

skybytch 273 #3 November 14, 2003 Uh oh. Tell 'em you're doing important research for a special project for your students, so you have to be on dz.com while you're at work. Hey, there was a word problem posted here today.... Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Deuce 1 #4 November 14, 2003 You poor thing. Like I said, some goofus was undoubtedly loggin on to porn, and rather than punish folks on a incident by incident basis, some lazy ass administrator comes out with this blanket policy. We'll miss you too. But,....we'll see you in just over a month in person! Wahoo! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
jmpnkramer 0 #5 November 14, 2003 Yes Dear they can track what sites and how long you spend on them. I am sorry to hear that. You should still be able to during your free time though. That is ridiculous. As far as the porn sites go they can prevent porn & gambling sites from being accessed if they have a half assed system even.

Wingie, if i thought I could do that tech wise i would, but often times light bulbs give me fits so I'm pretty sure I'd be in over my head.
