What kind of boss would not have already fired somebody who's day is spent slacking and reading websites regardless of the content containing tits or not? I know that if my employees sat around reading the newspaper all day instead of spending the 8-10 hours a day doing the work I have hired them for and that they are contractually obliged to deliver I'd have them out on their arse pronto.

I just couldn't relate to a workplace that permitted surfing, regardless of content.
I support it, I said so. What I am saying is that people should not post lewd, offensive or pornographic material on here, they just shouldn't. But nobody has a right to get offended because it might get them sacked. By all means be offended that you have been forced to look at things you'd rather not but not because it might upset your boss. Here's a tip, go and do the fucking job you are paid to do and stop slacking reading the net. That's going to improve your chances of not being sacked for looking at tits 100%. The English still have a mentality that they need to do as little as possible for as much as they can get and feel that they are still owed something. Do the job you signed a contract to do for the wage you agreed and then your employer might consider cutting you some slack and showing you the perks. ( or the perkies if they are so inclined ).

I've been in the building trade for years
and the way things work for me are always going to be different and at odds for someone working as a terminal jockey in a large office environment. I have a contract. I have a schedule and I have penalty clauses for slippage. Any skilled work I am not doing myself with the team I've generally worked with for many years I sub out to a contractor and I pass on those penalty clauses to him as is general practise and let him worry about his workforce and their output. I agree totally that a happy workforce is productive and that there should be incentives. End of day is never fixed and I'm happy for 3-4pm finishes as long as we are on schedule. We usually go to the pub and I'll buy drinks. On a Friday as long as there are no unforeseen circumstances ( like deliveries promised for 7am that turn up at 3pm ) then we finish at 2pm and go to the pub where I will stand all drinks again. These are the kind of incentives the builder appreciates. If we can do a week's work in 4 days then I'm happy for us not to work the 5th day if it is workable but in my line of work there can be no 'take it easy today and we'll catch up' because that costs me money and we can be talking a lot of money. I just expect people to do their job. I've sacked a lot of people but generally because they try to take me for a ride and I won't have it. I used to allow employees to take the firm's vans home and use them for personal use ( when I had a few vans ) until the insurance put a stop to that. I'm very fair and hardly as stern as I'm making you think here but at the end of the day if I don't make money because people are not taking responsibility for the jobs they have then they have to realise I must take action to rectify that or people don't get paid.

Very good of you to take the time and make the effort to produce such a good and considered response. Thank you.
Perhaps we're talking at cross purposes in a way. It sounds to me, from what you just wrote, that you are indeed a fair employer who, understandably, can do without pisstakers.
But I think many of us have been/are/will be the victim of pisstaking employers.
I think the majority of employers, unfortunately, are taking the piss. And not slightly taking the piss. Landlords, too. A little bit of power, an income stream... it seems to turn simple folk into little Hitlers, alarmingly quickly.
I'd like to beg all employers, everywhere, to remember that 'employees' are people. People. Just like you, me, him, her...

I did get the idea that it would be some sort of industry like that, and as you say, it's a different place to the office. Not only that, our work have us three ways over a barrel, so we don't feel too bad about wasting a bit of time here and there as they have us on 50-75% contracts, but will let us go if we don't work 100%. None of us have the cash to take it to court and I don't have another job lined up to go to. So f*** 'em. Sideways. On another note, I was trawling b3ta and the Mrs later shut the computer down wit the b3ta tab still open.

which permits 'personal internet use within reasonable limits', but prohibits viewing of anything containing nudity, pornography, disturbing or violent content etc etc
hence I am allowed to view B3ta at work up until the point anyone posts something which falls under those definitions.
and being paid for periods of time that you are not doing your job. That would earmark you for replacement in my firm.

shut my face because I have an opinion
on what I consider a suitable employee for me and then stated he would not be one?
I apologise. Therefore fuck off.

Actually I enjoy opinions. But I also enjoy saying shut your face.
I don't see why somebody shouldn't be employed to ad-lib how much of the working day they spend relaxing and how much working. If they could be trusted. This is how a boss functions, and presumably the relaxing part helps.

no, like many people I am paid to fulfil a role not a man-hour quota
and can spend my hours as I choose, it's entirely my own responsibility as to how and when I choose to get the work I need to done. I am not contracted for paid periods of time.
You're basing your statements on a contracted-hour view of employment, which while relevant to your industry, is hardly representative of every job on this planet.
That's how it works at our place. As there's a two-hour lunch break, we can cock about all we like, just nothing NSFW. Also, my jb invloves a certain amount of sitting and waiting in which there's not time to start anything else, so yah, boo, sucks to you.

jhobs that your are doing purely out of necessity, and have little to no interest in.
jobs that suck the soul from you, but still pay the bills. jobs where your boss is a twisted image of you in 20 years time, if only you'd kiss the bosses arse (yes, arse) a little more. jobs where you know that you'd be far happier, and would be able to kick the weed habit and become active if you only stood up and said "no, i won't do it anymore, i won't whore my intelligence purely to make some fat cunt (not me) richer" jobs like mine, and no doubt, many others. Jobs that owe you respite.
