Dear Ms. Theologian:How does one while working at home resist the temptation to surf the net all day? I still get all my work done. Should I even resist?

Dear SurferGrl:

Ah, temptation.

If you are using an internet connection provided by your employer or monitored by your employer, you must resist this temptation. You have no privacy there. You know this.

If you are using your own private internet connection, Ms. Theologian has no problem with surfing (if you get your work done).

There are many temptations to resist: online porn, cheesecake, velour, breast implants, azaleas….but surfing while working productively at home isn’t one of them.

–Ms. Theologian
