Slack-ass workers can surf the internet without consequence. This according to Administrative Law Judge John Spooner in NY. This ruling was in connection with a worker, Toquir Choudhri, who was routinely told not to surf the internet while at work. The mayor, Michael Bloomberg, fired his ass when he caught him playing solitaire at work. From Spooner’s decision “It should be observed that the Internet has become the modern equivalent of a telephone or a daily newspaper, providing a combination of communication and information that most employees use as frequently in their personal lives as for their work.” So, my question at this point would be should not the termination stand as he was routinely warned?
