You'd think the headline of "borderline NSFW) would have clue'd you in.

At work, we can get away with a funny shot of some chick's boob falling out of a bathing suit while playing frisbee on the beach.

Not that.

So tits are better than a kid that did something funny showing no private parts?

What does your admin do? Sit in a room and watch everyones screens all day?

My idea of funny and my employers idea of funny are two completely different things. Guess whose idea of funny wins out when it their computers, their network and their time? And Im sure telling the sys admin to **** off probably wouldn't make the situation any better if they had a problem with it.

Get a real job in a real company where someone DOES scan what you surf.

From what I just found out, I was only the second person since this system was implemented that had something flagged.

Here's what I gathered:

Pretty much anyting goes. Everyone surfs. Builds take a long time, we need to get away from our work for a few minutes, fine. But once something like this comes across the pipes, it gets flagged. I don't know what pattern or URL recognition the system uses.

ThinkInsane said it best. It's not my system, it's my company's.

I do have a "real job" at a "real company". Actually I sent the picture to my boss.

He thought it was "real" funny.

You need to get a "real job" as it seems your job treats you like "real babies".

Seriously dude, that's borderline "police doing dawn raid and taking your computer away" type stuff. I know it shouldn't be, but hey don't you remember that newsreader (Julia something or other) who got hauled off to the cells for taking innocent pics of her own kids in the bath?

Tits are better than pretty much everything.

It was a reasonable film and all if you're into that kind of Brit gangster thing but I'm not going to say that it was better than tits.

I thought it was pretty good, I don't think it can compare to boobies though.

I recommend that everybody not work at a place run by pedophiles. Then you avoid all the problems of people finding sex in a picture of a little boy doing something silly.

Seriously, I could show this to people around my office, and they would either find it funny or not funny, but I guarantee you nobody would be sick enough to look at it and think "OMG porn!!!!"

You're not in the UK though. Seriously, the place has gone mental - to the point where a number of paediatricians have been attacked by lynch mobs (hey, both words begin with "paed", right?).
