Step 1: Use a Proxy
If Facebook is being blocked by a firewall, you may be able to get around it by using a proxy. A proxy is used as a go-between for your computer server and the site you are trying to gain access to. Your computer will access the proxy website, and then request to be connected to Facebook through it. Thus, your computer never appears to have logged on to Facebook itself. Many proxies can be found with a quick internet search.Tech-faq.com and atproxy.net both provide regularly updated lists of proxies. You will need to find new ones over time, as they are blocked by firewalls as soon as they become known.

Step 2: Google Translator
This is another sneaky way to get on to Facebook or other blocked sites. Log on to Google translator, and choose to translate Facebook. Then, Google will actually go to the website and get the information for you, instead of your server. This is similar to a proxy, and is safer as Google is a trusted website while many proxies are not. -

Step 3: Use Common Sense
If you know that your computer activities are being monitored by your boss, it may be best not to attempt to log on to Facebook. After all, no web site is worth losing your job over. Also, if it is known that you took the trouble to sneak around the computer system, it will make you look like an untrustworthy employee. -
