I know that some of you surf in here while at work- and that's okay with me- but it might not be okay with the company you work for.
This guy was employed by IBM (heh... a few of you might know him, hint hint) and had previously been told that his surfing of adult chat rooms was not "OK" with IBM. But, he just couldn't stop. So, after the warning, they caught him again, and canned him.
YAY! Good for IBM. After all, surfing adult chat rooms at work is not as understandable as say, surfing at my place would be.
Anyway, the guy in this case claims he's addicted to sex, and since the internet has so much available- he's become addicted to it too. I'm not sure how that can be a good defense, but it's his story- so I'll let him tell it.
American with Disabilities Act?? Are you kidding me?
The story gets crazier.... go take a look for yourself.

In papers filed in federal court in White Plains, Pacenza said the stress caused him to become "a sex addict, and with the development of the Internet, an Internet addict." He claimed protection under the American with Disabilities Act.
