Then maybe I am connecting on the wrong channel, please suggest the 
proper one.

That said, I don't mind a good argument about the best BBQ sauce as a 
keep alive, or about a new craft beer they just discovered but I can't 
find locally, but even that has a limited appeal as I don't think mixing 
access to potentially dangerous machinery and alcohol should be a good 
idea, and people who change their nick at 2 minute intervals just 
because they can are just noise.

Thanks Andy.

Mobile security can be enabling, not merely restricting. Employees who
