This is standard intelligence procedure. Let the enemy underestimate you. George Bush senior was head of CIA. Apparently he has George II using the same strategy. He's not as dumb as he's pretending to be. Neither is the CIA.
If I ran a company I would send in stool and urine samples for every employee. I would want to know who's having too much fun outside the office (why wasn't I invited?) and who might be likely to make large health insurance claims in the near future (colon cancer more common among programmers, sitting all day, maybe diabetes, heck even bad anal hygeine, I want to know.)
Which is fine until you point out that the flip side of this is that you'll only work your contracted hours and never think about work outside of work hours.
If a company is going to totally restrict what you do during work hours then they shouldn't expect any favours back - especially when a better job comes along as you'll be the first out of the door.
The/. posting here implies that they are guessing completely, but in fact they are really just taking note of people that are hanging in shady areas, loitering, with no real reason to be there.
I suppose the only valid reasons to be anywhere in Amerikkka are working, shopping, commuting, or taking your daily dose of TV - Cult of the Corporation - indoctrination.

I'm not worried that they're keeping logs.
