Sounds exactly like my life (and our secretary!) at the moment BS!
Yes it's an employee ... I'm just reading her employment contract to see if we can do the same - I don't think it's occurred to the boss to threaten it!
I'm completely astonished by the whole thing and trying to get this kid to do WORK! 
Yesterday she was off sick, so the day was spent going through about a hundred emails, many of which the content was so dubious I just wanted to get home and have a shower!

if shes not doing her job then surely you can go down the warning road and start the process to get rid of her, or it might make her buck up her ideas. Even if she is or isnt doing drugs the boss (or whoevers job it is)should be able to sit her down and talk to her about slipping standards etc...

slash is also a fan fiction slang word...not sure what it means but it came up when i googled. sounds like you are spying on some one ?!

Slash in fan fiction is a male/male or female/female pairing.
Not sure how that fits into the context of the emails but yeah it's the only way I've heard it applied too.

Geepers... I'd say the emails alone would be enough to give a warning normally right? Don't businesses usually have a use of computer/email/internet code thingy?

OMG - sounds seriously dodgy. I think it sounds like warnings need to be issued. From an employers side it's so hard to fire anyone these days.

Don't worry - we've consulted someone and the required processes are being followed. I just honestly couldn't believe it and because of the content of some of the emails, I just wanted to see if anyone knew what that one thing was.
It wasn't even spying! I had to work at her desk because she was away (she has programmes that I don't because I don't really need them) and I needed to use her email etc and lo and behold!  Aside from the fact that I knew she was emailing flat out, it's the content that would turn your hair white!

Ginger - her name isnt Jess is it...she sounds just like my old sec....whose ambition in life is "to be a playboy model and go to the playboy mansion" - yep said in high voice and accompanied by "OMG (to BS)did you go the mansion when you were in USA?"....
oh yeah right!!!

LOL she needs a letter "you have been sending several emails from our work computer mentioning the word 'slash'. We have no idea what this means but our google search came up with a whole heap of suggestions, all of which are very dodgy"
BS I sure could do with one of those booklets myself, somedays! How did I get to not having any alcohol except wine (and even that wasn't until after I was 21), AND never touching a cigarette... to a legal sec who has to know how to spell methamphetamine and all manner of other drug names!! LOL

There's some definitions on urbandictionary.com. You may find what you're looking for on there, but I don't really want to know how my DH knows about that site...

haha ask me no questions......
Actually it's because the most disturbing thing I have ever stumbled across on the internet to date was a slash fiction about the Weasley twins on from the Harry Potter books. Funnily enough, no matter how hard I try I haven't been able to forget it - just the concept I didn't actually read it.

Yeah... I think it's also Chronic and Drunk mixed. But I think the one's I've come across lately don't smoke so they use the other way. Unless I'm wayyyyyyyyyyy outta touch! *sigh* I'm only 22.

Just speaking to my sister who is doing a drug & alchol survey for a health research company on behalf of ministry of health & suggested that it could be a name of a "party pill", she said they have strange names like that.
