I feel like an old person when I think it's a sign of the apocalypse when employees are playing WoW, surfing (do people even use that anymore?) non-work-related sites, and texting/tweeting/whatever on their mobiles AND missing dates.
I also pull 'confused puppy' when they complain about content filters blocking reddit, etc. Sure, there's the occasional gem there, but it's rarely a primary source for solving a work-related problem, and I am highly suspicious of claims that it is needed for work. (Unless you're in a very narrow niche.)
