Each employee gets 180 minutes a day in quota time to use the allowed sites. Lucky me, I'm a supervisor so I have several log-ins and never run out. Even luckier, BDW doesn't count toward quota time for some reason so I'm good :o)

we have websense as well, and we have found out you can go to kproxy.com, as well as many other proxy sites and get around it.

Well I guess I'm not that bad off. We had restricted sites like youtube or myspace, but today was the first day I started to notice a MAJOR blocking of different sites. Even some of my buddies called to tell me they got blocked from Steve Madden.

 

But now I just tried maggie sottero again and I can go there. Very weird.

Oh boy! I'm debating on telling my staff that because they always run out of quota time....it may have to be a "you didn't hear this from me but..." thing because I'm sure IT would not be pleased if I spread that around!

Our IT dept just blocked facebook and myspace type sites etc. Grrr. I mean I get why they did it, but on my lunch hour I should be able to go into facebook and play scrabble if I want to! I would die if they blocked this site.. since I'm the only one at work on it, it would be pretty obvious if they were monitoring my usage.. yikes

      Cabo Azul Wedding Cost / Review

      By Emmma · Posted

      Hi everyone! I have been doing lots of research on various wedding venues all around Mexico, my fiance wants a destination wedding and I am happy to have a wedding wherever so long as the vibe is right and guests are happy!  I have been seriously looking at Cabo Azul and was trying to find potential costs for them, but only found a page about their wedding costs from 2010. Does anyone have any updated information on costs / reviews they would like to share of this venue? Or advice in general, anything helps. Thanks so much, happy wedding planning to all!

      Wedding venues and wedding planner in Costa Rica

      By KristinaH · Posted

      Hello everyone, I am dreaming of a wedding in Costa Rica and was wondering if I could get any help with venues and wedding planners. I am thinking Tamarindo because a close friend of mine lives there and I've been in town more than a couple of times, she's being helpful but is at a loss when it comes to this subject really so I was wondering if anyone here had recommendations. I am not closed to other town suggestions either, if I happen to find a good place and staff somewhere else. These are the places I have so far, has anyone had any experience with any of them?  Stay In Tamarindo Luxury Villas in Costa Rica Luxury Villas Pinilla Tropical Homes of Costa Rica The Point Luxury Villa Thank you so much for your help!
