If they eliminated access to the internet and removed games from the computers CS would have no problem getting their work done in a timely fashion. Just look at how many posts and hits this website has everyday. That tells me that if your taking work home you need to quit playing during duty hours

I do agree that EVERYONE should be trained on the requirements of teleworking. I know many folks who take work home without the boss's knowledge or consent. That is normally the direct result of hearing "I need that first thing tomorrow morning!" at 1545 hours.
I've even seen people at work with their government desktop going full stride and their personal laptop sitting along side processing at the same speed, all on a government work requirement. Due to the unscheduled nature of many such unauthorized hours (mostly well-intentioned, even if still illegal hours), once more, every government worker who touches a computer needs this training.
Even more so, to build on the government software procurement site licenses, every civilian laptop should be rotated through their organization's IT section for the necessary securing and setup; WITH THE TECHNICIAN EXPLAINING THE PROCEDURE TO THE OWNER! This would enhance the training and provide an educated user for the technician should questions or problems arise.
Having said all that, I already anticipate a number of responses (if anyone out there really cares) stating the various laws, labor constraints, etc that would prevent this from happening. Well, I have one little question for y'all; Am I right or wrong that practically each and every one of you has either done this form of overtime or seen it done?
Well, there is right, wrong, and then there is reality; and sometimes you just have to go with reality.
