Fired for Looking at Porn

Avatar BeachFloridaSunTan submitted 499 days ago
2 months ago, I was canned for looking at porn on my computer. I had the job a little over a year, and had pretty much been watching porn since the first week. The thing was, I knew eventually that I would get caught, but I didn't give a shit. I was sick of the people there. One Monday morning, I came into work, and the monitor had a sticky note saying "Don't Use". Instantly, I knew I was probably nailed. A little while later, the supervisor came and told me that the hard drive was taken away to the corporate office, because it had more than 30 viruses on it. Now, I had tried software to erase my tracks, but it obviously did no good. I was called into the big bosses office with the supervisor. They gave me the choice of resigning or being fired, because when corporate looked at the hard drive, they would find the problems. They told me to think about it. I still didn't care. And, I continued to push the boundaries by looking at porn. Well, a co-worker needed to look at the other computer I was on, and saw that I had a bunch of Yahoo Group sites dealing with porn, he told the big boss, and he escorted me out the front door. I know that I am addicted to porn, and have to stop. But this is the first job I was ever fired at. I quit others.
Now, I have to find another job, but not motivated to do so.

    You need help to get rid of your addiction, or you always will end up getting fired, unless you are your own boss.

    Good luck to you.
