We've been noticed. :orly:
Existence actually has two broad meanings despite its apparent meaningless. The constant reconciliation of all its parts, and the conservation of any closed system as a whole.

Morality can be extrapolated from these meanings to make these two commandments of godless morality: 1). Be in harmony with one another and 2). Care for the environment.

You don't have login info for the firewall?   I am the admin at my work, so I can make it block any site or make an exception just for me to access said site.

Barracuda makes commercial routers and firewalls, but I have no idea if they are difficult to hack.   Cisco routers and firewalls, I do know about.
:P   Internets are super serious.

I wish I was the admin where I work, things would run a lot smother , but until then  :facepalm:

Obviously the management of your place want you to keep up with the boring, drudgery that they've employed you for. So until you can get around their firewalls and their security, they have you by the short and curlies.  :evillaugh:

Get some proxy servers, will be tricky since half of them are blocked though.

i2 was blocked at my college last year, along with ZOMG. Flickr too, which is a shame since it would've been handy for work.

I have used Flickr for work so clients could keep track of projects as they were competed why block that?

First off I am not actually employed by the organization where I work, we are sub-contracted out

With that said, people are paid to work, not to surf random non-business related sites

The government started blocking it as a sexual content site a few months ago, which is why I am on so little. Takes too long to really keep up on my iPhone.

They don't block Rush Limbaugh though. Go figure! :-\
Crazy, I'm halfway to crazy
Suicide would waste me
Homicide would break me

Tongue tied and tied to the tongue
Oh, is life as bad as dreams
I guess that's just the way it seems

at first i thought this said "I2 blocked art work" and wondered why odeon was embarking on some kind of censorship of the arts
