I am just about finished with CCNA 1. Hopefully next March I am ruling over a network with an iron fist. NO March Madness for anyone! / evil IT voice

online is cool actually you have much more control over which game you want to watch

you have to know when the commercials are going to pop up tho because they wont let you change the channel during a commercial

Yeah, that always drove me nuts when I would try to use it at home. Could never time it right. Easier to just have multiple browsers on different games if you have the bandwidth to support that.

I see no reason why anyone needs to be streaming HD video of basketball games when they are supposed to be working. If people want to check scores or run the gamecast, I don't see any issue there, but dozens of people sucking up that much bandwidth is a problem and they have no legitimate business need for it. If their lives are so sad that they are going to fall into a depression if they don't watch Kansas bulldoze Northeast Rhode Island A&T on Thursday morning I would invite them to take a vacation day

That's the time you take away from doing your job during your work period. These "breaks" allow you to rest, eat and perform other actions so that you may return to work feeling refreshed.

The company I work for has no such "breaks" nor do they have a "break room".

It is 2012 you know, right? :)

It helps that almost everyone is salaried and has pretty specific jobs to do. If you want to get your work done slower than usual and be at work for 10-12 hours because you were watching games it's not a problem as long as your work gets done.

I'm the one who never takes a lunch or anything more than a smoke break though... so I just get through my day like any other... get through my work, maybe catch a few minutes of a game and get score updates on line, then get home early afternoon and watch all I want. It helps to start work at 5am I guess. My day is ending at many peoples half way point.

Cha-ching.

A Rhode Island reference of any kind is not good in this instance.
