What I Learned At Work Today #2

My company has put an internet block on The Onion and The Daily Show with John Stewart... but not on Fox News.
Huh, I wonder how they determined which fake news to keep and which to pitch?

I've also heard that during the NCAA Tournament, they block ESPN.com, but not during the rest of the year1. I understand the concept, but if you are going to block things that might be distracting to employees, shouldn't you also block out such time wasters as Amazon.com, OddTodd.com, and Bored.com? But who said corporate life had to make sense?

1I confirmed that ESPN.com is not blocked right now, which is how I learned that the Twins suck so bad right now that they can even lose to Kansas City.
