Man surfs porn 780,000 times, loses pay


A local council employee in Japan has been punished after it was discovered he had accessed porn websites at work more than 780,000 times in nine months. (shouldn't he be mentioned in Guinness book of world records)

His superiors were alerted to the problem only when his computer became infected with a virus. (Can't you guys keep your porn sites clean, look what you did to the man!)
The 57-year-old man, who has not been named, works for the city of Kinokawa in southern Japan.

He held on to his job, but has been demoted and his wages have been cut by about 20,000 yen ($190; £80) a month. (damn! no rewards for setting records!)
Each day he would turn up to work, but once in his office it seems unlikely he got much done. (you don't consider this an achievement!!!! try surfing 10,000 pages a day dude, Any kind of pages, and you will know what I mean)

A council investigation found that he viewed more than 750,000 pornographic websites in nine months.(whoa! Are there so many sites or was he a repeat visitor to some!)
His habit reached its peak last July when he surfed for porn more than 177,000 times during office hours.(I salute the man)

That works out at almost 10,000 pages a day, or more than 20 each minute he was at his desk. (that's a real fast net connection speed, Three cheers for the company providing net access)
A council official, trying to explain why no-one had noticed, said that each employee's desk was set apart from the others.

The man was discovered only when his computer became infected with a virus, prompting officials to look at his web-browser history.(clear the cache, i keep telling you)

He has not been sacked but he has been demoted and his pay cut by about $200 a month. No doubt he is also proving to be a little more productive now. (obviously! he is addicted to working on the computer guys)
