[A] report from the National Science Foundation . . . says NSF employees have been spending significant amounts of company time on smut sites and in other explicit pursuits. [Iowa Republican Sen. Charles] Grassley, the ranking member of the Senate Finance Committee, on Tuesday fired off a letter to the NSF's inspector general requesting all documents related to the "numerous reports" and seven investigations into "Abuse of NSF IT Resources" cited in the foundation's 68-page semiannual report. . . .The "stimulus" will provide more money to hire more "senior officials" to surf porn. Maybe this is the bailout Larry Flynt was looking for . . .
The report says they were watching, downloading and e-mailing porn, sometimes for significant portions of their workdays, and over periods of months or even years. In one particularly egregious case, the report says one NSF "senior official" was discovered to have spent as much as 20 percent of his working hours over a two-year interval "viewing sexually explicit images and engaging in sexually explicit online ‘chats' with various women." Investigators calculated the value of the time lost at more than $58,000 — for that employee alone.

ReplyDeleteI won't quibble with the estimate that $58K worth of "value" has been lost, but if quotation marks are being thrown around, shouldn't there be two big ones surrounding "women" in penultimate sentence?
