Can the County Commissioners of Brantley County please explain to their peers why County Courthouse Employees are allowed to play on Facebook while on County paid time? It isn't just an occasional thing, they are on it the entire 8 hours they are at work!!!
THIS NEEDS TO STOP IMMEDIATELY!!!!
I refuse to pay them to play on the internet!!!!!
I have copied and saved a lot of their activities "which are time stamped" and will continue to do so!!

Chap,  back when the last commission was in they tried to get the judges, tax comm., sheriff and other offices to cut their budgets by 10% but they were'nt having it. That was in 06 & 07, I was at the commission meetings. There is always someone working at the court house late at night making overtime. You should bring this to the commissioners along with your prof but I would hope it's more than one instance and more than one person. It kinda sounds as if several are doing this.

Friends,

This is just a statement, not a suggestion.  Most private companies strive to limit their liabilties.  By allowing employees to freely surf the internet, a company cannot control whether work is actually being done on those computers.

Many of you that work at companies in Waycross and Brunswick have probably noticed that your employer has installed blocking software to keep certain websites from being viewed during work hours and also been informed that a log of your internet visiting and times will be kept in your personel file.

Some of this stems from sexual harrassment law suits, but most is to keep the employee focused on work and not on updating his or her facebook page every 30 minutes.

Anyone working for the Board of Commissioner or the Board of Education are really your employees due to the fact that your taxes pay their salaries.

What level of control do you want on your employees web surfing?

Chap

Why dont you post the names of the employees who are using facebook while working on county time.  That would be interesting to see.
