Muggaz...you have my sympathies...and empathy.

A little while back Joe User poster boy Muggaz wrote an article expressing his sorrow at the loss of being able to blog on the job. Link This morning I have found that I now share his fate. Because I work at a school, our server filters out a lot of stuff for various reasons, some obvious, some rediculous. The filter description on Joe User suggests that I can no longer access the site because it is "pornographic." Well, asside from the occasional fictional porn star holding a blog here, I we'd all agree it would be a stretch to say we are all a part of a pornographic blogging community. Why can't the filter just say "GET BACK TO WORK." I'd find this much more reasonable...and entertaining.

Still, it does pain me that I cannot even access the site even when I'm off the clock...but it was nice while it lasted.

I was surprised when I first starting blogging at Joeuser how many people were allowed to do so at work. Unfortunately, I sit on my ass all day long using the Internet as a primary source of communication, but alas, I'm not allowed off our system's links.
Now... get back to work!

I am glad that hasn't happend - and you have only been regulated in your blogging experiences... It's a pain in the bottom, but my work has improved dramatically, I can assure you of that!!! just think of it as tough love!!!

hey, i'm REAL ... ( i know, i know, you meant miss-bra-size-larger-than-iq and her 'look at me' blog)

Why can't the filter just say "GET BACK TO WORK." I'd find this much more reasonable...and entertaining.


suspeckted, the filter can't say that because you'd find it much more reasonable...and entertaining

Still, it does pain me that I cannot even access the site even when I'm off the clock...but it was nice while it lasted.

It could even be BAW - Blogging At Work, then we could use it as a verb. One could begin their blog with "So I was doing some BAWing today when a coworker came up to me and demanded to know who ate the last poppy seed muffin....."
