Any company firing me for "creating a hostile work environment" for such
a matter as this is, in my book, not a company I wish to work for. YMMV.
I'm definitely going to have to uninstall the fortune package at work
-- probably even if the xxx content is "encrypted". My employer is
lenient enough when it comes to "rogue" cygwin installations (e.g. not
installed by the IT guys) but they'll get downright annoyed if
employees create a liability problem for them by installing something
that might offend another employee (e.g "create a hostile work
environment")
What the hell is some other employee doing snooping around your computer
to view these files?!? To me *that's* a hostile work environment created
by the snooping employee!
