Notes from a manager, part 2

Internet access: Your computer may have internet access, this is to equip you to do your job. It is not so we can pay you to chat with friends throughout the day, nor to update your twitter or facebook status with every passing thought. Internet access is not provided so you can research your next vacation when you are supposed to be doing a report. I understand that it is impossible to draw clear lines between home and work life, those lines are often blurred. I understand that our working hours are also the working hours of travel agents and banks and those are the best times to get things done. But, please limit your social networking, web browsing, and cell phone time during work hours. I don't pay you to be popular, there is a job to do and productivity does matter.
