aries shetichye amoosh,
Your title suggests a question-what is the halachah-fair enough. Notice, however, that there is not one poster here that takes the position that it is OK to cheat your boss, and that is because there really is no question at all. As is evidenced from your posts, it is really a rant predicated on an assumption that some, if not many of the posters who are posting during business hours must be doing so dishonestly on their boss’s time. Why assume the worst. Unless you are a doctor in which case a dire prognosis can make you wealthy, but otherwise it is counter
productive for all parties, yourself included.
flowers-it all depends on how the question is asked.
But since you asked so nicely…I am self employed. I hire a full time secretary and I do not look over her shoulder because I know she is honest and gets the work done. If she chooses to take some down time and post on the cr(for all I know she is one of the posters here) I am fine with that. And I assume that most, if not all, who post during business hours are doing so honestly.
