Possibly, personally I don't give toss.

I've seen the other responses to this thread and agree that yes you should 
inform staff of any monitoring, but then again we are all monitored 24/7 
anyway.

You're line manager should be monitoring what you do otherwise the company can 
save money by sacking him, the clue is in the word 'Manager' or 'Supervisor' 
I've worked for too many companies in managerial positions both here and in 
London and it never ceases to amaze me what people get up to, then when they 
are found out have the bare faced cheek to complain at being caught! 

They never own up and say "Fair enough I was out of order" no no no its always 
some pathetic excuse like "Well if you'd payed me more I wouldn't have 
pinched that three tonnes of copying paper which I sell at the local car boot 
sale" Or to put it in context "You've no right to monitor me looking at those 
child porn sights and sending your customer databases to anyone that will pay 
me for them" 

If that's Anal then that's fine by me. That's an idea I could set up a company 
to monitor staff

Anal Investigations what do you think?
