When i worked at the help desk, i got a lot fo the perks urge referred to.

Not really a perk, but more of a fun insight into the jerks that we had to deal with was finding porn on their computers and knowing we could blackmail the shit out of them if we wanted to.

Mostly it was softcore, and average, the kind of stuff you find in playboy, but occaisionally it was weird.

One guy had pictures in a folder ON HIS DESKTOP of women he knew. Now, dont get envious of him, he looked like Luis Guzman, was in his mid 40s and drove a white jeep with gold trim and a vanity plate that said "DA BOMB". The chicks were appropriately skanky and disgusting.

Then there was the guy with beastiality (horse)...


The major perk with that job was my boss leaving me in control of 6 computers that were always running, basically for show. I was the God of IT for over a year because I ran a file sharing server (movies, music, software, the above mentioned porn) as well as hosting Halflife deathmatch, Counterstrike, unreal tournament and quake 3 servers for the company. Lunch times were AWESOME during that period.


Then the CIO got wind of it, I found out through the grapevine, and had all evidence of our little scam erased or physically removed in under 10 minutes.

It was passed off as an ugly rumor and no one got hurt. Turns out a contractor decided he didnt like one of the guys who was playing CS with us and found out then ran crying to the higher ups, basically because he was hoping to get the guy fired.

I believe the lack of evidence backfired on him completely and they decided to end the contract. :D

prick.
