And, wouldn't you know it, the people I worked with were generally happier and it was easier to get work done, albeit without a real change in productivity. People just bitched less.
Your company's draconian approach to browsing (reminds me of where my wife works) does nothing but make people bored at work and unsatisfied with their jobs.
2 weeks is correct, but depending on the company you work for, you may be politely asked to just leave when you give them notice, especially as it sounds like you're not viewed as essential there. In most cases like that, they'll give you your due vacation pay and some severance, but obviously severance is not guaranteed. Its probably in your employee handbook.

Yup, correct. My direct boss let it slide last night and what do you know.. Everyone was collaborating, less stressed (to me), and we actually got shit done! Don't get me wrong, some people take it way too far but in general, if there's shit to be done, things get taken care of.
Also nailed it on second part. No severance, I'm no where near that level.
