The new forums will be named Coin Return (based on the most recent vote)! You can check on the status and timeline of the transition to the new forums here.
The Guiding Principles and New Rules document is now in effect.
Ok so I get to work Friday at 7am and find a sticky note attached to my monitor which reads, "Don't panic your account has been locked. ST." I, of course, start freaking out, wondering what I did.
Did my boss see that I spent the past few days doing nothing but reading PA comics and forums. Did he see that I spent a better part of the past few months doing work for my other place of employment while here. There were so many thoughts racing through my mind. Oh god I'm gonna get fired.
Finally, he called me into his office. I knew I was in deep shit because there was another girl sitting in there as a witness. I closed the door and sat down. He starts going on about how I violated his trust and abused my admin privledges. All the while I'm still wondering what the fuck I did. he goes on to tell me that I am no longer allowed to take my breaks in my office or use my cell phone in my office. And now I'm thinking holy fuck did he find out about my plan to murder the Jews. Just when it feels like my heart is gonna pop outta my chest, he says you're account has been disabled because you installed 2 unauthorized programs on your computer. 1. Stellarium (a constellation program which has been on my PC for 4 months now) and AIM (which I just installed the day before just to see if it could be done). I was shocked. He was acting like I killed baby Jesus or something. So I was documented and am being forced to purge medical records in a dimly lit storage room. Which to me is inappropriate and unprofessional. if the money and benefits weren't so good I would have told him to eat a dick. So here I am spending another wasted day in this storage room. He thinks I'm working, but hey, why would I do that when I have the internet on my phone.
So, what're some of the worst things you've ever done at work and been caught or not caught doing?
I'm not a narcissist. I simply like to watch myself exist.
If I had to pick a favorite episode of Lucy, I'd go with the one where her friend, Carolyn somebody is coming to visit her in California and Lucy's been talking all about all the celebrities she's met. So when Carolyn visits, they steal her glasses so she can't see very well and has Lucy put on a bunch of masks and parade around the apartment. And then I think it was one of the Marx brothers is downstairs by the pool for a benefit and Ricky and Fred ask him to go up and visit right when Lucy is dressed up as him entertaining Carolyn.
Classic.
EDIT: Apparently I've been defeated. But Youtube is blocked on this computer, so I couldn't link to a clip anyway.
oh man that suckssss. I have no idea what I'd do all day if I didn't have the internet to occupy me, I get all my work done in like an hour and then answer the odd phone call for the next 7.
I love Lucy and she loves me,
We're as happy as two can be,
Sometimes we quarrel but then, how we love making up again,
Lucy kisses like no one can,
She's my missus and I'm her man,
And life is heaven you see,
'Cause I love Lucy, Yes I love Lucy and Lucy loves me!
Man, I almost got written up for checking my fucking paystub one time because it seemed like the smart thing to do to check what was online before it was deposited into my account to make sure I wasn't getting fucked out of my money.
Fuck David Gochman and his goons. Academy Sports & Outdoors can eat a dick.

If you do get fired and are hard up for money I'll buy your comics.
Nothing wrong with taking advantage of people when they're down.
I'll never be that hard up for money. There is nothing wrong with me browsing the forums at work. When I'm working on computers and waiting for programs to install, I need to have something to do or I would go insane. As far as installing programs' I thought it was ok because he told another girl in the office that she could install an IM program on her computer and I'm the SysAdmin for christ's sake.

My old job was really cool about installing programs. In theory I wasn't allowed to, but the process was sooooooo slow that once I gave myself installation privileges when the head of the department was on my computer and then just grabbed what I needed. They didn't care as long as my work was being done, really.

good lord you're the sysadmin and you have to put up with that shit?
I mean, sometimes I sleep in my office for chrissake.
I got banned from using school PCs for 3 weeks, after I installed Winamp on one of the PCs. I also had to write a one page apology letter to the cuntrag computer technician/administrator.

lol...I get all my work done quickly and end up having a good 6 hours of nothing to do. I have actually gone to my supe and asked for more work but there isn't any because I am good at what I do.
I have google chrome installed and I use gtalk through gmail all the time. I don't know what I was thinking, my friend asked me to install aim and I guess it didn't click that I would get in trouble. I still don't feel like I should be doing work that they pay people who make $8 an hour to do. Oh well, I'll sit back here throwing files away for $22 an hour while admin work goes undone.

He's apparently not a very important sys admin if they locked his account out.

but you are too
so, um, I didn't know Lucy was a redhead for the longest time
Leave as few foot prints behind as possible
also, purging medical records sounds kinky
meebo + incognito mode using Google Chrome is apparently a good combo to keep your tracks hidden
Most of the time he was chill about it, sometimes he was a dick.

That requires you to install Google Chrome.

Maybe you should have checked with him first.
depending on the company they can be flexible in terms of what can be installed
browsers are usually ok

School was fucked.
Yeah but that requires that you use google chrome

Which is a perfectly fine browser as long as you don't want to middle-click free-scroll.
