My Personal Tragedy
This morning I came to work and as per usual went to the gmail website to log-in. My heart stopped for a moment when I saw this:
Přístup odepřen / Access Denied (content_filter_denied)
Váš požadavek byl zamítnut z důvodu zakázaného obsahu v kategorii: "Restricted;Web-based E-mail".
Your request was denied because of its content categorization: "Restricted;Web-based E-mail".
Yes my friends, when I thought that I had beaten the man, the man came back to beat me. Do you know what this means?? NO GMAIL AT WORK AND NO GOOGLETALK! This is tragic. I am doomed to boredom and back to using only my work email address during the day which blocks half the messages I am sent!
The filter here is crazy though and sometimes pages are blocked but when you go back a few days later they are allowed again. I'm hoping that is the case. Otherwise it's going to be a long 22 days more of work at Komercni Banka. And what's really annoying is that the filter is unfairly targeting me! (Jenny said yes I was being targeted, but no it was not unfair. I disagree, there is some sort of conspiracy happening here!) Anyway, I checked with the KB trainee in Ostrava and her gmail worked. So not cool.
So if you're wondering why I haven't been responding to emails within minutes or been chatting on googletalk, it's because I can't. And it's raining outside. Could this day be more depressing?
Oh wait, I just remembered, the website I use to post picture isn't working either. Fabulous.

Such a beautiful day.
So I haven't heard back from you for 10 minutes already, does that mean my email to you was blocked? Or yours to me was filtered? Too bad, it was a long email, had 5 lines and took me 2 minutes to write it...
I think blog comment chatting can soon be a trend.
I think sometimes the emails take longer to come through because of the filter. Is this karma? Bah.
You know what I do! I have my Gmail fowarded to my work account!
My work email blocks emails arbitrarily so I don't want to have stuff forwarded because I won't end up getting half of the emails! Sooo...I guess I'll just have to check at home. Damn KB!
