Yes, I agree, but remember, this is Payson!!!
There aren't many good employees up here. It's all old fokes or teenagers=
=2E And=20
drunken drugged up teenagers at that!

We don't have a computer usage policy because we are too small of a shop.=
 It's=20
just a small computer repair/build/retailer. We only sell what we build, =
no=20
name brand pcs. Only good stuff. We're really fussy.

The things the employee is not doing is stuff like empty shipping boxes a=
nd=20
removing the pop corn. Breaking down boxes and cleaning up display cases.=
=20
Minor stuff like that, but things that need to be done none the less.=20
We are a small operation.=20

But this is the final step. After I got it all working today using squid,=
 the=20
employee seemed to be much better, and never asked why the computer would=
n't=20
allow access to the email sites.

If the employee went around my firewall, I would fire them immediately.=20
But, being a small shop, we don't really want enemies. Not when it's mino=
r=20
stuff.=20
