My Kingdom For A Brain

Had a job come in from Michelle (the one promoted just before the merger/the one who tried to get people to help (ie do) her do the job she was tasked with).

It's  do's & don'ts on internet use.

One instruction says that students/staff must not look at copyrighted material. Which effectively closes off the entire internet (bottom right).

Want to look at BBC content? ... Can't do that!

Read the Guardian? ... Can't do that.

Look at somebodies photos on Facebook? ... Can't do that.

Mentioned this stupidity to Kate, who mentioned it to a bloke who took the poster off to point out that we'll look more than stupid if that goes out. That said, part of me want's it to go out so when the shit hits the fan ...


























PS: Added to this is the fact that, after I'd run the job, the woman who brought it down admitted that she'd forgotten to check that it was OK to run for the cost (about £10). As of Monday evening, they are still here.

[Update: after a long arguement it got changed]
