ianphampton Posted September 12, 2014 Posted September 12, 2014 (edited) It's my business, so I am the boss! However, I am aware that my employees have to follow the 'Employee Handbook' which states 1. No connection to the Internet is permitted unless authorised by the Managing Director. 2. The System Administrator may limit the size of e-mail enclosures. 3. Files received via the Internet will not be opened without performing a virus scan using an IS approved and licensed software package. 4. Installation of web server software or any software on any PC owned by Asgard Engineering without IS review and approval is prohibited. 5. Connection to web sites or USENET Groups related to sex, illegal drugs, criminal skills, hate speech, on-line gambling, sports, entertainment, on-line merchandising, humour, or job search is prohibited. 6. Downloading any file from a non-approved FTP site is prohibited So, by my reckoning - point 1 is satisfied as I'm the boss and as long as nobody on here talks about sex, sports, entertainment or humour then I can get away with point 5 as well!!

Looking at this - it pretty much means any post from SMD is prohibited when I log on at work! Edited September 12, 2014 by ianphampton 1 Quote

sipar69 Posted September 12, 2014 Posted September 12, 2014 (edited) Well, apart from the topless ironing which one of my young male staff members told me I could do when I said that I needed more money (and I rejected on health and safety grounds ) I have never been a desperate housewife I don't think. I haven't got a telly so am not quite sure what it entails but I think I might be guessing correctly. Um housewifery IS work in my book ������������������ Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk If I happen to be out and about when I have a day off I see a lot of what I suppose would be described as housewives. From what I can tell it seems to entail aimlessly trundling their brats around in push chairs, meeting other 'housewives' who are also pushing their brats around, stopping at a trendy cafe for a coffee and to talk about the little brats (nothing else), having a leisurely wander round the shops etc. It doesn't look especially taxing to me. And of course the rest of us have to do all the other so called 'housewife' activities - keeping the place clean etc. - when we get home from proper work! Edited September 12, 2014 by sipar69 Quote

Ekona Posted September 12, 2014 Posted September 12, 2014 I got stopped by the police the other day, random check. They did theirs, then VOSA checked the van & fuel, then HMRC gave me the full shakedown. Fully expecting a proper check in the next year now Quote
