There are no rules that say I cannot make personal calls or be in the computer, if there were, I would follow them.

If you really want something to be outraged about, how about looking in to your local congressman's "expenses", especially while traveling. Probably spends more on travel then you make in salary all year. Don't forget to look into his taxes too, probably lot's of shifty write-offs and exemptions if he even pays them at all.
