Do you get afraid? Increase the size of your Attachments

When you try to log onto Poly (from work) on a Monday morning and it says that you lack the security to make the connection. Are you afraid that your IT network people have finally noticed how often you hit apolyton.net and have blocked it? I thought that for a few seconds this morning. I was glad that it was just down but I was thinking how much it would suck if they did block it. How about you guys? I'm sure I could talk them into removing the block, but it would be annoying.

I am, and that's why I could probably talk them out of it. But if they were just monitoring traffic without regards to who was doing it, they might not notice it was me until they put in the restriction.

Of course they would have to respond from home.

I only login to "leisure" sites when I'm doing work from home, so it doesn't go through company infrastructure.

Even so, I sit right next to the security guy, so it's all to the good, but I don't want to get in the habit of being lax.

I don't worry about it. I work in IT and know all of the guys who do security pretty well. If they block me anyway, I'll just use the modem on my laptop. Btw, I only log on to Apolyton from work, at home I'd rather play games, which I won't risk doing at work.

Hmm, it's ok to waste time logging on to Apolyton at work but not ok to waste time playing games. Normally that wouldn't make sense, but Since I feel the same way, maybe it is different.
