Verizon Employee Outsourced Work To China So He Could Surf the Web

Talk about being creative to get out of doing work. An employee at Verizon Enterprise Solutions decided he would rather play on the internet than do his work so he outsourced it to a Chinese company.  He was getting paid to play on Facebook, browse eBay and watch videos on Youtube, all while someone else was doing his work. Life was going good. That is until misconduct investigators noticed remote logins by an unknown user from China. Apparently he was getting high marks from management and they even noted him as the best developer in the building. Too bad it wasn't him. It was some company that he had been paying $50,000 out of his six-figure salary.

Since the article didn't say anything about it, I am going to assume that he was fired. If that is the case maybe they hired this outside company since they were doing such an awesome job.

What have you done to get out of work?
