Council workers lose jobs over eBay 'addiction'

One council worker has been sacked, and two have lost their jobs over spending too much time on auction site eBay, reports the BBC.

Apparently some of the the staff members at Neath Port Talbot were spending up to two hours a day on eBay and entertainment sites such as sports pages.

It's a thorny problem for all businesses -- the amount of internet freedom to allow employees.
