網絡摸魚 cyberslacking

因特網的出現改變了我們上班的方式。如果你現在還想找到一份不看電腦、不用網絡的工作，估計很困難。這就引出我們今天要說的話題，你上班的時候上網看視頻、玩開心、聊MSN或者處理私人事務嗎？多少都會有的吧。對啊，所以人家說了么，網絡無人不“摸魚”。咱們今天就介紹一下這個cyberslacking（網絡摸魚）。

Cyberslacking refers to staff who use their work internet access for personal reasons while maintaining the appearance of working. That is also known as goldbricking, "Buca-ing" cyberloafing or cyberbludging, and can lead to inefficiency.

“網絡摸魚”指員工一邊假裝工作一邊利用單位網絡辦私事。Goldbricking、Buca-ing" cyberloafing或cyberbludging等詞都可以用來指“網絡摸魚”，這種行為會導致工作效率低下。

Instances of cyberslacking have increased markedly since broadband Internet connections became commonplace in workplaces. Many firms employ surveillance software to track employees' Internet activity in an effort to limit liability and improve productivity. Other methods used to reduce cyberslacking include installation of proxy servers to prevent programs from accessing resources like Internet Relay Chat, AOL Instant Messenger, or some online gambling services, strict disciplinary measures for employees found cyberslacking, and carrot and stick measures like providing free Internet access for employees outside of working hours.

自從寬帶網絡在辦公室普及以來，“網絡摸魚“現象明顯增多。很多公司利用監控軟件跟蹤員工在網絡上的活動以限制其“摸魚”行為同時提高工作效率。其他減少“網絡摸魚”的辦法還包括安裝代理服務器以阻止網絡聊天、即時消息或在線賭博等程序的運行，對發現有“摸魚”行為的員工嚴厲的管理措施，以及為員工在工作時間外提供免費網絡服務等“胡蘿卜加大棒”式的政策。
