When I was started working at Agents of Value, I’d been so blind about the company policy. I really thought that all agents were allowed to access other sites not related to their work including Friendster. Of course, it’s not! What was I thinking then? And so I signed in to friendster frequently without hesitation. Never cared whoever saw to whatever was on my monitor. The hell I care! I even had enjoyed myself with yahoo music knowing that our HR was sitting right behind me. Great! I kept doing it over and over again each day. Until such time, two of my colleagues were caught to have accessing friendster during working hours and it prompted the admin to announce that sites like friendster and yahoo music are strictly prohibited during working hours. Funny thing was I felt guilty after the announcement. I was like “am I the one to blame?” hahaha! Thank goodness that it didn’t take me long to know who among us had been caught by the admin. I felt so safe and relieved. Well of course, I was still guilty about it only that I wasn’t the one being caught. And then the next thing I knew, the said sites had been blocked.

Not long after Friendster comes the Facebook. As I checked my email one afternoon out of boredom, I received a lot of invitations on Facebook in my inbox. As far as I can remember I just accepted those invitations and then, that’s it. I didn’t know its purpose and how it is suppose to be used. I didn’t pay much interest about it and I found it so boring. I only engaged myself to facebook only this year as it is becoming popular to least at Agents of Value. I know it is popularly used worldwide but I am only accepting friends to the people I know especially my officemates. They are the ones I know who are very much active on it. Facebook seems to have a special role in strengthening the bond among us, agents. We are able to share our thoughts through updating our status. And we are free to comment to whatever we are posting whether it may be serious or not. The same goes with our publicized pictures; posted results from different applications and games. There we are able to communicate with each other silently.


P.S. will soon create a post that will be entitled close to addiction as a continuation of friendsbook

I finally have something to blab about today. I refused to write about the long weekend that had just gone coz there's nothing really significant about it that I can recall. I just stayed at home throughout the 3-day break reading books, watching tv, eating and sleeping.

Anyway, I arrived here in the office with a smile. Greeted my officemates and mingled with them good-naturedly. Sometimes, before logging in in my computer, I usually have a little chitchat with my friends. But this morning, I went straight ahead to my area and learned from my seatmate that Facebook has been blocked. It took me a little while to believe what I just heard. It prompted me to switch on my computer to see it for myself and there, I didn't know how to react. I've been visiting facebook tentatively whenever I get bored with my task. I love posting in there, reading comments and not to mention, playing games! (LOL). But now that it has been blocked already, I end up searching random articles and entertain myself by reading in which I'm not satisfied.

I suppose there has to be a reason why the admin decided to block the said site.

At around 9 in the morning, a mass message from one of the admin has sent.

Karma up.... karma down... karma gone.

KARMA!!!
