Using the net on company time can get you in big trouble.
I got caught going to a website I shouldn't have gone to at work. What can I do now?
I’m going to assume you mean porn. Why anyone would want to look at porn at work is slightly beyond me, but never mind how I feel about it. Whether you want to or not, going on x-rated websites on the job is downright dumb. You must know that with all the spyware and employee-tracking software out there, employers are likely to catch you, and that doesn’t always mean the sneaking-up-behind-you method.
But you’ve already been caught, so let’s move on. If you’ve already been reprimanded and apologized your only choice is to don a halo and behave like the employee of the month from now on. Don’t visit any non-work websites--even seemingly innocuous ones (because they’re still wasting company time). You have to earn your employer’s trust, so your only option is to be the best you can be. If this means moving your computer monitor to a more publicly-viewable location (your back to the office, for instance) indicate a willingness to go for it.
And for god’s sake, don’t do it again. Sheesh.
