I pay my taxes on time. Never been more than a day late with the rent. If my wife and I are walking and I see a pretty girl bursting with cleavage, I don’t look-ish. I am a good person on the straight and narrow. So why does my $#@% wireless router have it in for me? For some God forsaken reason that lawnmower man wants to see me suffer. It will grant me access to any site on the planet, except the one I use most – my Twitter account. I could view porn sites with un-Kosher animals molesting Amish people, but the minute I switch my URL to Twitter, BAM, no access. I know, I know, you're thinking, "Idiot, just kill the evil router and switch it!" Well I can't for 2 very, very important reasons.
- I’m lazy
- My Wii and BluRay are synced up (that’s 32 minutes of reprogramming)
AND THEN I FOUND PROXY...
Unfortunately, I’m not alone with my problem. Thousands of workers across the country suffer from a similar affliction of evil company servers. In some cases you get blocked from your favorite sites. OR, worse, these cyber demons report your surfing habits to the BOSS. How can we as humans survive in this rancid type of working condition? Are we suppose to simply do our jobs all 8 hours of the day. No viewing funny youtube videos? No clicking on email links that show odd German pornographic situations? No Facebooking friends? And God forbid we reTweet! That is unless you do what I do at home and work to elude big brother's wrath – PROXY SURFING.
If you’re looking for tech definition, click here. Don’t really understand it except for the simple fact that proxy sites enable you to browse the world-wide-web anonymously. No more being spied on or blocked by the MAN. I listed the ones I use below. Totally super easy to operate. Just go to any of the sites and use it like google.
Reclaim those "productive" 7.5 billable, work hours back! FYI...you didn't hear any of this from me.
Yeah there are always creative workarounds blocked proxys... I used to do it at work all the time! for porn
ReplyDeleteOh man you just reminded me that the next job I find could be like this. I worked for an interactive company so all we did was look at social networking sites etc. Eek!

Good thoughts but my ass isn't get busted for even more time on the 'net. Why in the hell does it say we posted comments three hours ago? That's what I wanna know
ReplyDeleteIt's funny, I spend most of my workday on the net, and most of my time at home (after everybody else goes to sleep) doing work....
ReplyDeleteI Think It's Interesting
My current company prohibits any websites that are not work related and any activity that is not work related is documented and given to the supervisor and manager. It sucks!
ReplyDeleteMy work computer blocked access to those sites. Boo hiss. At least I can tweet and blog post!
