You not only lied ... you broke the law. We simiply couldn't afford a liability the likes of you.

Your employment was terminated only after the firm consulted its lawyers who advised us to take that action against you. As to your Internet addiction, it was only after you were "let go" that you alluded to any potential addiction. Had you possessed an ounce of integrity, we might have acted differently. But, you absolutely refused to admit to any wrongdoing even though it was plainly obvious.

You were well paid for work you didn’t do. We owe you nothing. However, we wish you well in your future endeavors.

PS Stop refering to yourself as young and poor. You're over 40 and have a "comfortable" trust fund to keep you going.

You left out some key details in your intial post. One might almost think you are either a) creating this story or b) engaging in an ad hoc rescue at this point. However, the thought of you staring in a mirror, to see around corners and spy on a worker, is well worth the effort to read this thread.

Never change RSS. You inspire us all!

I do too, but I'm thinking RSS can tell us what it's like.

Anyway, the software really pays for itself in increased productivity.

Quick question about that kind of software. If I have multiple programs open such as outlook, excel, word, another work program as well as the internet but does the program count all the hours the internet connection was open as time spent on the internet or can it tell if I am actually working and using the other necessary websites? It's never come up as an issue but I was always curious.

Wait...are you guys being serious? This guy was ripping off his employer AND not doing his work. Plus, remember that RSS isn't the one who fired him; someone else at his firm did.

When I was a child ... there was a spy toy allowing one to see over or around walls. Maybe I need one of those. Sadly I can't remember what it was called.

Oh well ... I'll just have to rely on the already installed mirror ... which makes a quick glance so very easy. Given its cost ... it will be a great savings when considering the $75 per hour we were paying our Internet surfer.

As for changing ... I'm not one to tamper with absolute perfection.

Teacher ... it's my firm ... so I take responsibility for that.
