The city of Cleveland, Tenn. is removing computer games and blocking social networking sites, such as Facebook, from city-owned computers, the Cleveland Banner reported.
"If you pay an employee for eight hours' work, then the employee needs to give eight hours," Cleveland City Manager Janice Casteel told the newspaper. The city is located about 40 miles from Chattanooga.
Among the games removed are those that come pre-installed with the computer such as Solitaire, the Chattanooga Times Free Press reported.
One city employee told the Chattanooga paper that she heard employees would bring their own games, and IT specialist Sherry Goines told the paper that "a lot of employees still use city cell phones to get on Facebook while they are at work."
