A 40-something-year-old employee in the U.S. with a six-figure salary decided to outsource his job to China so he could spend more time updating his Facebook page and watching cat videos. According to reports, the employee -- nicknamed Bob to keep his identity hidden -- telecommuted for a "U.S. critical infrastructure company." The company had just started to monitor employees and immediately noticed an active connection coming from China. It turned out that Bob had shipped his RSA token to China so the contractor he hired could log in and do his work every day. Bob had also arranged to pay the Chinese worker one-fifth of his salary to do the job. An investigation looking into Bob's browsing history revealed that he spent his day watching YouTube and surfing Reddit, eBay, Facebook and LinkedIn. At the end of each day he would send an e-mail to management with an update on "his" work. At the end of hte investigation "Bob" was terminated. (Daily Dot)
