Then just do what d00dman suggested if they tell you no then just leave it at that. People shouldn't be chatting at work anyways. If I were a boss or company owner I sure as hell wouldn't want to be paying my employees to chat. They are there to do a job, and for 8-12 hours or what ever that is my time. Chatting is done on your time meaning "At home"
All i'm saying is respect the wishes of your employers. And don't try to find ways around it. or you will end up being "let go".
