I see this all the time. All sorts of places. I don't get it. I also go
into a chat room elsewhere. I am shocked at how many people go in there at
work. They're not on a break or lunch either! And there is a forum where I
used to go. People went there from work too. One was an ER nurse who
worked the night shift. She'd actually complain about the people when she
came in because she'd have to stop talking to us and attend to them! This
went on for a long time and then someone finally took action and made the
computer so she couldn't go there any more. If I were an employer I
wouldn't put up with that stuff!
