Porn fringe benefits for IT workers
Dane considers porn fringe benefit
An IT company in Nordjylland, Denmark has introduced a novel program to keep employees satisfied. After examining well-known trends in Internet and business traffic, LL Media decided it would be sensible and appreciated to offer all of its employees free subscriptions to Internet pornography. The company's director, Levi Nielsen, believes that access to porn is a natural fringe benefit, like a free phone or a company car. "We know that 80 percent of all hits on the Internet are on porn sites. And we can see that people also surf porn pages during work," Nielsen told Danish Broadcasting's DR Nordjylland. In return for this service the company blocks all access to porn pages during office hours. Nielsen hopes that the expense of about DKK 30 (USD 5) per head per week will make his staff more relaxed and more efficient on the job. hxxp://www.aftenposten.no/english/world/article796860.ece |

If Denmark is like Sweden, where full-pen porn comes on after the nightly news, then I can see why he'd think that.

I can confirm it. I was in Stockholm a few years ago and had the news on as background noise. It ended at 10 and a young lass's backdoor adventures began promptly after. |

On a tangent, I have a Norwegian friend who told me that violence is completely banned on television in Norway. I don't know if it's the same in Sweden. No cartoon violence, nothing. So definitely make love, not war baby.

So, I'm wondering if some producer could get around that by showing S&M. "Hey, I'm not showing violence. It's sex." |

Two observations:
1) Yes, in many European countries, especially Scandanavia, porn is broadcast after 10pm 2) I wouldn't want to be on the clean-up crew at that office, even in full hazmat gear!
