For internet abuse at work, hence why i havent been on during the day lately.
I work as an agency worker for a local authourity and i got summoned to the personnel manager on tuesday. She presented me with a CD which has logged every site ive been on for the past 14 months.![]()
I have an 'informal' meeting with her, my director and someone from internal Audit tommorrow so i can confirm that log is accurate and expalin why ive been surfing when i shouldnt have.
The problem is, while the log shows the odd sites ove been on, mainly vvoc, internet banking, a few car buying sites and here, it also shows a massive amount of sites ive never heard of with either just an ip address or a foriegn title. Im presuming these are from cookies in pop ups etc? It also lists me as having 48minutes of adult rated site usage too, despite our firewall throwing back anything with even a hint of raunch, so again, i assume pop ups?
Theres 50 people in total over our department being spoken too, and i expect the permenent staff will just get a warning. Im not sure if they will just boot me out, being agency. I know they havent spoken to my head of department about it, as im sure he wouldnt want me to go, as he's only just managed to get staff levels up to where he wants them. (my line manger also said that depsite me going on the net, i was still one of the most efficent guys in the office lol).
Ive already rang my agency who siad they could have me a choice of new jobs within the same day if it came to it, so im not going to take any sh!t from them. I'll admit it, (partly) apologise and leave it to them to do the rest of the talking.
