Web nonsense

[sobrique]

We have webnonsense at work now.
Which is nice.
And some smart arse, thought it'd be a really cool idea to redirect everyone in the company, through google.fr.

Websense bothers me slightly. Blocks hacking sites and swimwear sites, but sites about the cultivation and use of cannabis are fine.

Which actually leads me to wonder.

Wouldn't a climate controlled, always lit computer room, with aircon to take away the smell be almost the perfect place to operate a hydroponic garden?
You could even hook the nutrient supply and other environmental controls in to the systems monitoring tools, so you can track how well your weed is growing.

On a completely unrelated note, is it morally wrong to have a wank on company time? I mean, you're effectively paid to go to the toilet, make coffee, and to attend to other 'bodily needs'...

Obligatory "oh shi..!" response.

You can't say it will help de-stress you because the government will tax it as a benefit

hang on. I thought taxable benefits were things of a financial nature.
So they could tax you on the porn, but not on the ... ahem act.

Although if the same logic applied to having a dump, then I'd be almost too delighted to announce that it allowed me to de-stress. Poo-tax appeals to my sense of toilet humour.

Kinda like the planet in HHGG where it was suggested you always get a receipt after using the toilet...

You can imagine the tax inspector waiting outside the cubicle wanting to take his slice (so to speak)
