I know they know I’m on here. Every site we visit is tracked and reviewed. The way I figure it, I don’t take smoke or coffee breaks and I get my job done. If I was a slacker at work then I’d be more worried. They crack down every once in a while but they are more concerned with visits to porn sites than DRN. In fact I have met a few people on DRN that I have later contacted about business issues so I can say that DRN is my business networking tool.
Why is this such a concern to you? Do you pay my paycheck? I work 80+ hours a week, babysitting crybabies that sound just like you, and if you divide my salary by my hours, I make less per hour than most of my employees do. I run a very profitable department, and take no real breaks, so I don't think anyone will ever have the nerve to complain if i take a few minutes out of a stressful day to relax and talk (or in this case type ;) ) about something that I truly enjoy. Besides, I don't think I feel like firing myself anytime soon.:confused:
Right on with the smoke break thing. There are plenty of people taking smoke breaks and bs'ing every other hour. IMO, DRN is less harardous to your health. ;)
The way I figure it is I'm salary, I work anywhere between 10 and 12 hour days, sometimes more, very rarely only 8 hours. I very rarely leave my desk, even for lunch. I'm in charge of when I come and go (within reason). If I know I've been tinkering around on DRN too much, I stay later. It all evens out in the end.
Does my boss know? Well let's put it this way, my company was a sponsor DRN's Spodefest 00 last year! :)

Two words
Network Admin :) .
I run the software that tracks the Inet useage, so I am constantly surfing the web to make sure it is working,,, but there seems to be some bug with it where it is not logging MY useage,,,,,, hmmm, well Ill keep working on that :) .
I get the job done, Network Admin is kinda like fire man, you sit around alot (if your good) and wait for fires. Im like the maytag man, you put up a good system and maintance is low. I dont bust anyones chops about the net either, unless they complain they cant get their work done, then I print out the bar graphs and pie charts :) .
