I had to sack a guy for looking checking out porn at work. Very uncomfortable, lots of silences and forlorn looks.

Side note: if your work blocks the forums use terminal services/remote desktop or VNC to remotely log into your home PC and use your home PC to view the forums.

Even more side note:

That's not what the poll asks though. There's no AND option. You choose 3/4 at work OR 3/4 at home OR 1/4 at work OR 1/4 at home. You can't choose (3/4 at work AND 3/4 at home) as a combined choice. You also can't choose (1/4 at home AND 1/4 at work) as a combined choice.

Someone I used to work with used to (probably still does) pick up girls on Craigslist. He would flirt with them endlessly in email, then eventually arrange to meet (and fuck) them. Idiot used his work email account to do it. He came in to work one day and there were a stack of these emails (pretty raunchy stuff, if I know this guy) in his box with a note -- "Do we need to discuss the proper use of company software?" He didn't get fired, he didn't even have to have an uncomfortable talk with anyone. Of course he continued the behavior, he just used his Yahoo! email account. Maybe a year later he was fired for email/text stalking another coworker after her husband found out about their affair, she broke it off, and he couldn't let go.
