Washington DC - 41 Washington DC workers have been fired or suspended after they accessed thousands of porn sites on city computers. Nine employees were fired while the other 32 were suspended. Both male and female employees were disciplined after the month-long investigation.
The city’s Office of the Chief Technology Officer says the nine fired employees access pornographic websites 20,000 times in 2007 or about 100 times per day over the course of the 200 work day per year schedule. The suspended employees visited pornographic sites 2000 times in the same year.

Is that one site every 5min of the work day? Oh god.
And besides - how completely STUPID do you have to be to browse porn at work - I mean, come on!
You must work in a union shop where the union is to dumb to get rid of the worthless sh**s and the company to chicken sh** to do anything about it? Sounds like where I work! Stupid freaking unions anyway!
How would you like to be paying their wages for work you hired them for and then find them not doing it? Even if they were still able to fully do their jobs, they obviously don't have enough to do, so get rid of them anyway!
I think he was saying that IF they were still doing their jobs.
Even if this happened on a lunch break? Or in the after hours after a long day before going home?
I think what the parent is getting at -- what is the big deal of this compared to if you browse other websites, for example daily news sites, when you are on a break -- that is, if you are already doing your job like everyone else.
The only thing I can think of is that society consider it unethical. And that is it.

lol.
Good luck for that 32, lol.
He doesn't work here anymore.
The other day I was on one of the PC's, and needed to check something online, went to google and started typing. When the previous search list came up I was surprised to see "teen casting couch","teen porn movies" etc. I think I know who it is, as there is one guy that is currently working until 10pm by himself. But without knowing when these searches were made, I cannot prove anything.
well i doubt a person would be looking at porn at work if they were married lol
Marriage is one of the reasons people look at porn.
Haha, you said it, my friend.
Washington DC is one of the most corrupt and incompetently managed cities on the planet. They've had recent incidents of massive embezzlement in the tax office and teachers union.
This is a city that's ranked 51st in its friendliness to business, where self defense weapons are outlawed and there's speed cameras all over the place.
This is the lasting legacy of the Coke smoking former mayor, Marion Barry.
Avoid it at all costs.
