How dumb do you have to be...

Ha, blimey.

Apparantly, last year, another fella was walked offsite. He was caught having a tommy at his desk, early one morning, by a cleaner. Trousers round his ankles jobby.

Years ago I worked at a university in the South West of England that allowed unrestricted net access from Halls of Residence ( I know, I know ).

Every so often one of the students would get caught downloading porn and be dragged into the IT offices for a bollocking.

This bollocking would be delivered by a woman who worked for me, who took great pleasure in interviewing the, invariably young male, offenders. She'd sit them down in the office and present them with screen shots of whatever they had been looking at and ask them if they recognised it, did they think it was suitable use of the University network etc etc.

Most of them went in being cocky about it, especially the rugby and football types. They came out looking so miserable and embarrassed you almost felt sorry for them

QA Manager at one place I worked aeons ago got caught having his evil way with one of the cleaners over my mate's desk.

QA Manager went on to greater things.

Cleaner got sacked.

My mate burned all the paper off the top of his desk.

Pah. We've all done that.

Got to be said, MP - you work in some class places.

Then again, worse things happen.

Heard of one chappie who was caught with his trousers around his ankles viewing some graphic vid*.

Sadly enough, he was stone dead.

HR had an awkward time explaining that to his nearest & dearest.


*Must have been a really good vid though.

Good grief - a stiff in the office!

These tales are all from the same office.

Bloody cleaners eh?


Victimless crime if you ask me.................he was probably just trying to get his stress levels down before a busy day.

Two separate client’s sites I found male porno pics and vids on the HR shared area, (all women in HR). Another occasion when I was working in Athens the MDs email was bursting at the seems with it. At a government department in Reading, two male managers were caught in the act early morning in the loo.

Years ago when t'internet was young I was curious about internet porn never having seen any. Waited at ClientCo till most had gone home, did a lycos search and after hesitating and having a last look around clicked on the link. All the alarms in the building went off at exactly the same time, obviously a test. Don't think I ever jumped so high from a seated position.

I did a similar thing years ago - worked as a quality control technician in a cider factory & for the very first time in my life had my own dedicated phone so I rang one of those naughty 0898 numbers. You listen to a load of bollocks for about 15 minutes then, when you finally get down to the nitty gritty, all you get is a recoding of Barbara Windsor in some crap Carry On film. Must have cost the co about £20 that one, I was sweating for weeks.

One of my jobs in a past life was to analyse proxy logs - number one site then, in 2003 was rotten.com

I miss rotten.com

We had a large format, high quality, high speed colour printer at ClientCo. The night shift used to print off large pictures of decomposing bodies, mangled corpses and the like and leave them on our desks for us to enjoy in the morning over our bacon and ketchup sarnies.
