    Some bastard reported to my manager I was posting messages in sciforums at work. I just got a tongue lashing this morning for this. Well...this is not exactly the whole story. It's far more complicated than that. But some of you should be careful. Now I am formulating plans for revenge

    Everyone uses the internet at work though. Why the hell would you get in trouble for it?

    You need to tell your boss that these forums are related to work - you are researching customer interest in your product, checking out the competition, getting in touch with the older and/younger market........

    Well, as I said, that is not the whole story.

    I was actually providing some engineering support in production. Production line workers don't have the same privilege. They don't have flexible schedules either. They don't suppose to do that kind of stuff..... Basically I am blamed for disrupting the production for acting differently. Besides that, I was making calls with my cell phones, and not taking the breaks at the same time as everyone else, and not wearing anti-statics clothing. Hell, I am a professional. I AM different. I am not a fucking line worker.

    My manager has hated me for a long time. I think that is the real reason.

    That's what you get for having a real job. Clearly.

    Some day, you too, Walker must hold a real job. (Unless of course you are one of the few that are born to the money)

    Unfortunately, not all jobs are fun all the time. So we do those things that get us in trouble looking for something a little more fun. It happens...

    Wet1: I am well-versed in the ways of making a living, and I know perfectly well that it isn't always pleasant. I'm just jealous that I can't usually use my company's internet connection to screw around and post on message boards. Blah.

    I installed Mortal Combat4 on all the computers at school once. There was a big mess, but they didn't find out who it was

    oh- question for network gurus- our schools administration comp is under a rooter. I already made that comp as shared , but what I need is it's real IP, not what rooter asigns to it.
    How can I get it?

    You need to get into the router configuration by either using telnet or internet explorer. This will allow you to see the network's real IP. (the IP unique to the network that allows it to connect to the internet) To do this, you need to know the internal IP of the router. (If the computer's IP is something like 192.168.1.56, the router's IP is probably 192.168.1.1) You might be able to get into the router config by using internet explorer. Open IE and type http://xxxxxxxx (x's are the router's internal IP) If your lucky, that will open the config, which will tell you the external IP, but most likely you with either:

    a) be required to have a password
    b) use telnet, which will also require a password

    One question, why do you need the networks external IP? If you are trying to play games over the network, you shouldn't need the external IP, only each computer's internal IP to connect to the host.

    Wow ....

    I probably posted 1,500 posts from my work computer when I was there. It never came up. Not as an IT issue, and not even as a performance issue. Remember that the next time you go get an insurance policy. (I worked for an insurance company. Let this tale be a testament to their business style.)

    thanx,
    Tiassa

    the idea was to access the admin comp from an internet cafe.
    Because the comp is now shared (it's HD) I thought I needed to know it's real ip to actually access it.

    duno. probably I'm wrong.

    i would classify posting here as work, since as a scientist you can never have enough experience on writing...although i only write complete crap here of course...i save my good stuff for my papers...

    if they ever come out...


    i'm incompetent...

    Joeman, have you any idea who exactly is the lowlife that reported you?

    Consider, that they might be reading this board, so be carefull if you talk about getting even with these sons of bitches...

    maybe your manager has the sysadmin spying on you.

    Now, the most used and undermining tactic they use is building a case against you with arguments that you "don't fit into the group etc...". For them it is easy to get the production line workers to confirm that, because they hate your guts for not having the same miserable routine as them.

    It works like a pack of dogs, if you kick them around they will lick your feet, but show one sign of weakness and the hurd will jump on you.

    My advice:

    1. for a monthe or 2 have lunch with the production line workers, just in case, so that argument can no longer be used

    2. install spyware on his pc, and chuckle as you notice he visit bestiality sites, now you got some ammo to shoot back...

    Unfortuantely the guy who reported me is no longer with the company. He got laid off. I left him an email thanking him for what he had done and wish him luck when he left.

    Cool! Which reminds me of that two-faced person at work. I'm sure you've met them. At work, the mercilesly point the finger at everyone else, then after work the want to be your buddy. Ya right. I use that to judge peolpe at work- see how their attitude differs from work to off work.

    Cmon, who the hell cares as long as you get hefty pay? Grind teeth for the moment and take pleasure in the fat paycheck you get. Sweetest revenge comes long after the affront(s).

    Wait like a predator for your chance. Wait till you're really high up in the company. By the time you're in upper management, you might be able to think about usurpin his place...and watch and laugh as you see him cry out with useless anger with one eye, and run down the other across his wife's thongs. Sleep with her, get the sweet way of revenge. It's always satisfying.
