There is fair use on company time and there is abuse.. it all boils down to the abusers as usual who spoil it for everyone else.. Or then there's idiot organisations who don't understand IT and have draconian measures in place which instead of aiding in productivity actually prevent it.. by running out of date software because they are incapable of working out how to upgrade.. and sadly, among corporates world wide.. that sort of attitude is fairly common..

I have no intention of being dictated to by a bunch of pampered, spoilt, naive, non-value-adding, lazy, money hungry, degree buying youths that call themselves the Y-generation. Much the same as the majority of dope smoking hippies at Woodstock turned in to corporate suit types in a short period of time, then I expect a large chunk of the Gen-Y kids will pull finger and become useful in a few years. In the meantime they're welcome to meet all the 'real friends' they do on Facebook or Bebo in their own hours. Nah! Just kidding! winding you up - are you sure you're Gen-Y, I thought you'd been around longer than that?
