DMetcalfe92:

Can i first say that, as a seasoned IT worker i personally find this kind of behaviour and blatant admission of criminal activity to be abhorrent.

I can only hope that karma sees it fit your employer catches wind of this and takes some instant action - in the industry, we call this kind of forum posting a CLM (Career Limiting Move); criminal charges against you by an employer are generally the kind of thing that follows you for the rest of your career.

Ill content with waiting for karma, i began to wonder what D Metcalfe 92 might be a contraction of.... and armed with your self-confessed skills portfolio
(from here: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?&topic=61890.msg722090#msg722090 )
we found a little something you might find interesting..

IF your name just happened to be Daniel Metcalfe then this link with a very similar set of skills might worry you:

http://uk.linkedin.com/pub/daniel-metcalfe/45/824/a76

Especially because it lists the lovely services of [Weston EU Ltd August 2008 – Present (3 years 8 months)] as this this persons current employer...

http://www.westoneu.net/westoneu.html

Sounds like a lovely family operation - it would be terrible to hear that the Sutton's had gotten wind of an employer behaving like this.

I REALLY hope you werent that silly bro

Someone call the partyvan.

Cheers

Meh, I don't think my friend would lie to me

Course, I guess it's up to you to trust that I wasn't lying either


Is it hearsay when the accused is the one making the claims? *shrug*

All the evidence we have to identify the OP is evidence he supplied. How do we know for certain he isn't setting someone else up?

That could be, but like I said, the dude admitted it to his boss, so he'd have to...

...

OMG INCEPTION IS REAL!

Wow. People mine on work computers? I know a few people who do but because it's not illegal or wrong in the country I live in,it's all good (employers don't care about how you use computer resources,they care more about peoplestealing supplies from work like other computers and other items than they do about 'miners').

That's a pretty ambiguous e-mail.  

I thought so too but didn't care:  I am not relying on the quoted e-mail for any factual information that will cause me heartburn if it's fake.  All I got was a sense of satisfaction that karma probably caught up with that guy, which was probably already the case even in the total absence of a response.

I can respect that.

People lie all.the.fucking.time.

So, the members of this forum have potentially messed this guy's life up on hearsay.  Sounds legit [/s]

I posted this thread to Facebook

A friend of mine posted this in that thread

I think you have me mistaken as a Gen M or something, which I'm not.  I'm upset at the attitude to destroy an individual when the people doing the destruction have also stolen things from their work places.  Perhaps not physical things, but still company resources. 
 
Pot. Kettle. Black.
You missed the part where he actually did steal physical things.

What I missed is the part where there was tangible proof he stole anything.  I'm not saying he didn't do it, nor am I saying he did.

He bragged about it.  If he thinks stealing shit makes him cool, he deserves what he got, even if he didn't really do it.

I'm willing to bet that everyone in this thread has "stolen" company resources.  Ever gone to the bathroom outside your allotted break?  That's theft of time.  Used a company phone to make a personal phone call?  Theft of time.  Talk to your coworkers about the NCAA tournament? Read Facebook at work when it's not your job to do so?  Used a sticky note to jot down something that you forgot about to do at home?
 

Ever heard of being salaried?

Yes, this was where the line was drawn for most people, including myself. Steal company's time < steal company's electricity <<< outright stealing physical hardware and reselling it.

Yet you equate the three tonto. What? That doesn't make sense to anyone except you.

I equate theft as theft.  Do I do it?  Yes I often do personal things on company time.  They could fire me for it.  They probably won't (although it would likely be brought up as an excuse if they ever did want to fire me ,or would add it on to the list of offenses).  But I won't beat around the bush and say I don't steal.  Because it is what it is.
 
It's obvious that I'm wrong here, so I'll bow out of the discussion.  I've said what I wanted to say, and we'll disagree on some things. Smiley

I agree with you tonto, for what its worth.
