Woe! I no can has internets!

My work is cutting off a huge part of our internet access starting October 1st. Likely I won't be able to see LJ at all anymore, or any of my favourite blogs.

WOE!

Yes, I know. I'm supposed to work while I'm at work, but since a lot of it is "hurry up and wait" work, I really relied on the internet for my sanity.

*sigh*

I will live, but it just won't be the same.

Would management frown on the use of a Blackberry with wireless broadband?

Oh, very much so. All sorts of security breaches are possible with that. We're not even allowed cell phone within the confines of the OCC.

See, this is crazy. We are allowed to use our cell phones and such to get on the internet and do everything but make phone calls, but we aren't supposed to be playing around on the internet.

Seriously, how is the Blackberry on the internet more of a breach of security than the regular internet? (The reasoning for our rules is because of viruses and too much distraction. Not that they're ever consistent about that stuff. We aren't allowed to bring in portable DVD players to watch movies, but we can watch the televisions that they provide. I rarely do, because I really do get very distracted by the television.)
