Underemployed workers jump by 1m since financial crisis

[The Spartan]

As an ex IT manager I wouldnt let anyone have it, except me of course. When you run something like the sonicwall reporting software (cant remember its name) you can see that 99% of internet use is people wasting time when they should be working. Holidays, cars, weddings, job websites were the favourites

Thing is though even if you took away people would just use their phones or tablets and you can't monitor that

[escapeUK]

Yep, but you're not in charge are you? Maybe we know now why you're an 'ex IT manager'.

Because I resigned to become a contractor and treble my income? Maybe we know why you will always be a tester, as you arent intelligent enough to actually make anything yourself.

In a way yes, but people sat using their phones or tablets really stick out. People are employed to use their computer so it doesnt draw attention.

Yes, thats about the level of intelligence Id expect. Hopefully you'll think of something witty to say in a few minutes, I wont hold my breath.

I'll lend you some apostrophes if it helps; ' ' ' ' ' '

Don't use them all up in one go.

Steady on there, there is nothing wrong with being a tester.

Point is with Sonicwall or any other monitoring software you have it black and white, otherwise it's subjective.

Crawl back under your rock you odious little toad.

Apart from with your eyes. A company can easily say you may not use your mobile at your desk, and cannot use personal devices for internet access during working hours. True you can't rely on automated software to detect illicit usage but it's not hard to see someone using an iPad.


Anyway, back to mocking your wage slave status...

Yes but you make the basic incorrect assumption that staff are actually there to work 7.5 hours a day when in fact they are there to make middle managament di<k wad feel important so they will be happy to keep licking the clinkers off their bosses arse

permiedom is 10% productivity and 90% bollo<k juggling - taking away the internets will just drive people crazy
