Hello all. I started work last month and I was given a laptop to work on. I have to travel a lot for work and so I have to bring my work laptop along with me. Bringing my personal laptop and my work laptop along would be a pain and heavy, so I wouldn't do that.
I've got mixed responses from people at work about what I can and cannot do and it seems there is no official policy except for: It can't be illegal, porn or otherwise inappropriate material (such as going to racist websites).
However, it still is my work laptop and the IT guy said that I should normally keep it work related as if there is any problem with the laptop, the first thing he would do would be to delete any personal programs, not needed for work to see if that fixes the problem. :O
Some people have said, I can basically do what I want as long as I don't exaggerate. While others have said to keep it work related again.
So, what do you think ?
