Thes Hunter Posted March 17, 2014 Share Posted March 17, 2014 Poop. I cruise on my 4G tablet, cause the computers in the common areas all have blocking software on them too. But I only am tooling around when I'm sitting around waiting to see if any consults come in. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members SamuraiJack Posted March 17, 2014 Author Members Share Posted March 17, 2014 I can access via wifi, but my Note 2 is only so useful when reading long posts Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sumbloke Posted March 17, 2014 Share Posted March 17, 2014 It's blocked through the default proxy at work for me, but there's a secondary proxy I can use to access this site. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Loim Posted March 18, 2014 Share Posted March 18, 2014 Been blocked for about a week for me too, which seriously cuts down on my browsing time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wildbill Posted March 18, 2014 Share Posted March 18, 2014 Ditto. I don't know what changed but it is very annoying. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Talae Posted March 18, 2014 Share Posted March 18, 2014 Mine is not but I seldom have time to browse at work. Even lunch breaks and my planning period tend to be dominated by work. Middle School/Elementary School kids and administrators sure do love spending time in meetings/detention/etc... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members SamuraiJack Posted March 18, 2014 Author Members Share Posted March 18, 2014 (edited) I write and run automated QA scripts.. i have lots of free reading time some days... I'm guessing one of the bulk proxy services updated their block list.. mine worked before i was on vacation last week..

FaekiasDracon Posted March 18, 2014 Share Posted March 18, 2014 yeah, our whole computer system at work is online but we have no internet access, just the tabs and apps that work has decided to let us use. so I just use my iphone to read the forums when i am on my meal break (can't really say lunch because it is usually supper). all of my posts are made from home before or after work or on days off. retail: you don't have to be insane to work in this business, just to stay in it (8 years for me, be 9 in april) 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Loim Posted March 18, 2014 Share Posted March 18, 2014 Most of my post time comes when I'm waiting for a user to get back to me with specifics about their problem since "My computer don't work" doesn't give me much to go on. I also spend a lot of time starting processes, and then waiting for them to finish so I can move to the next. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jasper_the_2nd Posted March 20, 2014 Share Posted March 20, 2014 I'm spending the afternoon monitoring a process that went from running in 40 minutes to over 2.5 hours while a dba pokes around. Just think how boring it is with the forums blocked...sure I can pop on with my phone, but spending 2 plus hours starring at my phone would make me look like...well, the guys at the end of the hall.... 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
