a happy day for all office workers.

Judge John Spooner ruled that a New York City employee can not be fired for surfing the Web at work. Judge Spooner stated that agencies need to apply the same standard to personal Internet usage as they do to other personal activities, according to CNET News. Spooner compared Web browsing to other personal activities allowed by different agencies like reading a newspaper or taking personal calls, as long as these activities do not interfere with the worker’s overall performance.
