Three things you can be sure of:-
1. IT knows. They know everything, it's all logged, and they can trace everything you do online with a company computer.
2. Management doesn't care. They want you to get the job done ... EXCEPT ...
3. If you ever embarrass a manager, or (heaven forbid) get into a political battle, or (not that this would happen to you) the company hits a rough patch and wants to downsize ... well, they they'll be digging for dirt. Any dirt, anything that shows less than 100% commitment to work, or less than 100% integrity on use of corporate assets, and you'll be toast, made an example of, marched to your desk with a bin-liner and then to the door.
A bit like Al Capone being done for tax evasion not for murder ...
You risk being fired for misuse of the company internet, when all you wanted was to keep your own job when someone else wanted to take it from you.
So now you know the risks ...
but you wouldn't be here if you were queazy about risk, would you?  |
