Fifty different websites? Or different site's webpages? Fifty unique websites is a hell of a lot; I usually stick to about 10 here at work. If it had been only fifty pages, he probably would still have a job. I can go through fifty pages in about ten minutes if I took my time. It's almost certainly fifty sites at many pages per site and hours a day. I don't even hit fifty sites a day at home. Consider that a compliment, Gothamist.

He probably wouldn't have visited so many sites if he had been given some work to do. Give him a break, he was bored because he had nothing to do. At least he was at his desk, not like those dwebs who are always MIA.

"Choudri visited more than 300 sites in six days, or more than 50 different sites a day." Lightweight

That graphic would've been better if Gothamist had been one of the sites.

I'm glad I work for an Internet company where I can surf the web all day.

Good. I'm glad they upheld the decision to fire him. Employees shouldn't be wasting the company's money by surfing the net for personal use. Now I have to get back to work.

Excellent use of "wanderlust."
