# I know
but my boss has been trying to fire me for months now and every time he's spectacularly failed...I have grievance claims for constructive dismissal queued up against him.

Looking for a new job.

Basically, whenever you use a PC in an office, you should expect to be monitored.
It's all in the 'Internet Usage' policy thing...

I know this because I've caused several people to get fired (I actually installed the monitoring software - and monitor it ;)

# I'll just say that I thought my machine was in danger of being hacked
They never mentioned they were going to put monitoring software on my PC, so I was concerned that it was an unauthorised attempt to gain access to company information.
