Well now, since peach trees are self-pollinating, that picture is acceptable.

Just don't try it with apples .......

Also, they're delicious with some garlic, olive oil and a pinch of salt!

Only if properly cooked - too often they end up overcooked like erasers! (or as the brits say "rubbers" - just in keeping with the NSFW theme).

I was kidding... mostly. It depends on the prevailing culture of each employer but, as you know, the U.S. remains firmly attached to its puritanical roots.

Brings to mind this secretary that I had back in Richmond, CA, in the mid 70s.

Oh, I think I've already told that story ....... can't recall ......

Well, I hope you understand how someone in a land far away might be confused and perplexed at times, with HBO, CNN and this forum as the main sources of cultural information.

So what do you recommend? Comedy Central, Russia Today, and Infowars?

Actually, I think it is more a recent phenomenon than it is puritanical. Has more to do with the politically correct and the objectification (is that a word?) of one sex over the other.

I have a couple of decades or three of experience managing the folks that manage these technologies at some Fortune 500 companies so I speak from some experience.

Truth is, almost no company monitors for this kind of thing on a systematic basis. Sure, there are web filters that block obvious sites, etc but no one has time to monitor every individual photo that comes across someone's computer screen, well, except maybe the NSA.

In the end, its a common sense thing. If you have something up on your screen that someone else finds questionable and reports you, then you are going to have to deal with it and justify it. Most folks that get caught with inappropriate materials at work are from being reported, not some type of random scan or monitoring.

Basically, if you wouldn't want your Grandmother seeing you looking at it you probably shouldn't be looking at it at work in an open environment. It's not a whole lot different than it was before the Internet. You would have gotten fired (or at least asked to take it down) in the 80s if someone complained about the Snap-On Tools calendar hanging on your business office wall. (I will neither confirm nor deny it was mine) although they were pretty tame by today's standards.
