At first, I was innocently posting either just before the work day started, or on lunch, or even after work. But it eventually rolled over into the actual work day, and that is stealing from the employer, folks! Also, at least in our American economy, employers are looking for anyone they figure they can do without and thereby boost the bottom line.
Employers can see (and hire personnel to do just that) every website their employees visit or what they write in company and personal e-mail accounts.
I have tried to convert my fellow former co-workers to observe this strict personal policy, since the market is competitive here after a number of layoffs for my line of work. For Christians it is an easily identifiable way to not disgrace ourselves in the eyes of those before whom we want to let Christ be seen in us. And to be perceived as odd in a most acceptable way.
