On this day:
Non-Obsessed Gamer Gets Fired for Playing Solitaire at Work..
Well Ummmmmmmmmmm????, your not at work or in school to play games on "Their Computers!"...
I do have to say I did it quite a bit when we were getting our company off the ground and I was Obessed with Wolfenstein 3D when it first came out... Looking back I could have lost a really good job over it (not worth it)...
I see this alot now with the younger generation on the forums I hang out at and them wanting us to tell them how to bypass the school Firewalls, and Filters so they can Chat, Download & Play Games when they should be doing their homework and saying the game playing until they get home to their own computers and not using School Property for Other Things not related to School & Homework... Of course we would never tell them and if they need access to certain things they need to talk to their teacher or the Schools SysAdmins about it...
