hey guys, I know I'm supposed to be doing 'work' at the office, but 'corporate' has gone too far. Websense software now blocks Riffworld and I can't listen!!!! Work is where I do the majority of my listening and shouting. Home is tough b/c it's 11:00 pm before I can sit down to play and it's 12:30 before I know it. At the office during the day is when I would listen to all you guys and shout, b/c you're the best. now these corporate weasels have gone too far!!! I'm surprised I can access the forums, it's probably a trap, seeing if I'll take the bait and rant about it....at least I can still see sports and watch my money dwindle. I know that for must of us it's impossible to keep up, but riffworks is the best, warts and all, and you guys never cease to amaze me with your interesting tunes, and these corporate hacks will not stop me!! lol, peace

You could setup a SSH tunnel from your work to your home office and surf that way.

Check out this site:

Be warned, if they catch you, you will propably be fired.

I've said it before and I'll say it again - "management" serves no other purpose than to stifle creativity and make everything 10 times harder than it has to be for us worker bees.

My solution? Go into the corporate washroom and take an "upper decker" ;)
