Bosses Keep Sharp Eye on Mobile Workers

Posted by michael on from the panopticon dept.

camusflage writes "AP is running a story on the penetration of GPS devices and monitoring of fleet operations. Such technology is hitting the mainstream, with UPS distributing 100,000 GPS-enabled handhelds 'to alert them when they're at the wrong address.' One driver is quoted saying, 'It's kind of like Big Brother is watching a little bit. But it's where we're heading in this society.' Needless to say, the Teamsters weigh in on the negative side on the whole thing."

    You're a fucking twat, that's why. Is that good enough?

    My life does NOT fucking belong to you, you miserable fucking cretinous pile of fucking garbage. I don't fucking care if you pay me a pittance for spending most of my life at "your" workplace, but hey, you assholes were never noted for gratitude.

    You think your stinking shitpile of crap is somehow "natural", when of course, it's just the result of a system that rewards fucking asshole retards such as yourself.

    Once again, fuck off.
