Today, modern office technology multiplies the opportunities for employees to abuse their positions by blogging in the workplace. In a serious case the offender is likely to be penalized and even removed from their job.

Recently an employee in USA was suspended for 180 days without pay. The suspension is part of an effort to crack down on workplace blogging.

Fair or unfair?

These questions were posted on a website by someody intending to visit our country New Zealand and these were some of the answers actually received.

Q: Does it ever get windy in New Zealand? I have never seen it rain on TV, so how do the plants grow?

A: We import all plants fully grown and then just sit around watching them blow away.

Q: Will I be able to see kangaroos in the street?

A: Depends how much you've been drinking.

Q: I want to walk from Auckland to Rotorua - can I follow the railroad tracks?

A: Sure, it's only 200 kilometres, take lots of water...

It all depends on whether you really do have a sense of humour - lol.

THREE WOMEN, TWO YOUNGER, AND ONE SENIOR CITIZEN,

WERE SITTING NAKED IN A SAUNA.

SUDDENLY THERE WAS A BEEPING SOUND. THE YOUNG

WOMAN PRESSED HER FOREARM AND THE BEEP STOPPED.

THE OTHERS LOOKED AT HER QUESTIONINGLY. 'THAT WAS

MY PAGER,' SHE SAID. 'I HAVE A MICROCHIP UNDER THE SKIN

OF MY ARM.'

A FEW MINUTES LATER, A PHONE RANG. THE SECOND YOUNG

WOMAN LIFTED HER PALM TO HER EAR. WHEN SHE FINISHED,

SHE EXPLAINED, 'THAT WAS MY MOBILE PHONE. I HAVE A

MICROCHIP IN MY HAND.'

THE OLDER WOMAN FELT VERY LOW -TECH. NOT TO BE OUT

DONE, SHE DECIDED SHE HAD TO DO SOMETHING JUST AS

IMPRESSIVE. SHE STEPPED OUT OF THE SAUNA AND WENT TO

THE BATHROOM. SHE RETURNED WITH A PIECE OF TOILET

PAPER HANGING FROM HER REAR END.

THE OTHERS RAISED THEIR EYE BROWS AND STARED AT HER.

THE OLDER WOMAN FINALLY SAID.....' WELL, WILL YOU LOOK

There's this guy in a bar, just looking at his drink. He stays like that for a half-hour. Then, this bully steps up to the bar, takes the guy's drink, and just drinks it all down.

The poor man starts crying. The bully says: "Oh, come on, man! I was just joking. Here, I'll buy you another drink. I can't stand to see a man crying."

The troubled fellow replies, "This day is the worst of my life. First, I get fired for oversleeping and getting to work late. Then, as I'm leaving the building, I find out my car was stolen. I get in a cab to return home and I forget my wallet and credit cards in the cab. Then, I find my wife in bed with the gardener. So I end up at this bar, and just when I was thinking about putting an end to my life, you show up and drink my poison."
