So, work now blocks the Steam website...

Closed

So, work now blocks the Steam website. I can get to it through a proxy, but I can't log in. This is quite disconcerting as the Summer Sale is around the corner. What do they expect me to do at work if I can't get to the Steam website?

Thank goodness Steamgifts isn't blocked.

He should work in work. Not browse websites which aren't related to the actual work.

Maybe you should leave his work ethic to him and help out if you can or ignore if you don't want to? Why does everyone have to judge?

Okay so if a politician steals my money I should ignore because that's his work ethic? That's what you just said.

I guess people that say we should work in work really work 8h a day, only stopping to go to the bathroom and to eat lunch. Reminds me of that episode from The Office where Dwight didn't stop to do anything, he just kept working non-stop.

It's funny, people are allowed to talk, stop to eat snacks, but god forbid they ever stop to browse on the internet anything non-work related.

I wish I could use my iPhone to buy games, but my account is a UK account and I like in Mexico. I cannot seem to use the UK site on my phone or in steam. Have to do it in a browser only. Unless anyone knows different?

And then, if you're lucky enough to find another job, realize Steam is blocked there too.

Profit.

But no, really. You're at work, do your fucking job. That's what they pay you to do. Not smoke, eat, take a dump or buy video games like a giant manchild. Do those things on your time and if you're slightly inconvenienced in some way by this, find a job where they will care. Hint: 404 Not Found

That's right! You are no longer permitted to use the washroom at work!

Please hold it until your shift has ended. Thank you - Management.

also "holding it" is deemed immature and touching yourself is a display of perverness and will not be tolerated, please have your things gone by 5 o clock today

he means people like me who excrete exclusively on the clock. I'll hold it half the day to get paid to shit instead. it gets me out of a few minutes working.

I've gone to work on the edge of vomiting so I could enjoy my sick days. and it makes it look like I've got a great work ethic for showing up so the days I take I must be on death's door.

Perhaps do your work. Your employer doesn't pay you to browse Steam or Steam Gifts.

I'm boggled by why so many people seem to care that you check the Steam storefront at work every once in a while.

Leave your PC on with teamviewer on and connect to your PC from work. If they block teamviewer connections, try VNC (should work since you'd be connecting directly to your PC. This is probably the best solution + you can browse porn to.
