A ruling in New York should come as a relief to people who have a habit of checking out the Internet at work.

A judge has ruled that use of the Internet is no more goofing off on the job than reading a newspaper or making a brief personal phone call.

“It should be observed that the Internet has become the modern equivalent of a telephone or a daily newspaper, providing a combination of communication and information that most employees use as frequently in their personal lives as for their work,” Administrative Law Judge John Spooner said.

Sweeeeeeet!

The Red Staters are probably going “hey, how in the heck can yuse rednecks surf Al Gore’s internet(s) when you are in the fields?” Easy. We have quarter million dollar combines that put their Beemers to shame. Y’all think they won’t put built in everything on those babies?

Make sure y’all visit the other White Trash Wednesday folks on the left hand sidebar. This ain’t the liberal blogosphere, where bloggers visit 5 sites and use their talking pernts.
