Moist Owlet: Can Confirm. — Subium • Bluesky web client

if you have policies that incentivize employees in any way to use a mouse jiggler and you then run an audit that detects people using a mouse jiggler I think you kind of have to fire those people. you should really avoid the first two things though

Wells Fargo fired a dozen people accused of faking keyboard strokes | CNN Businesswww.cnn.com The pandemic may have released us from the tyranny of the five-day-a-week office schedule. But the grip of America’s busy-work culture is proving harder to shake.

This is true, but it's trivially true. The real problem here is that Wells Fargo's management and C-suite apparently do not believe that the purpose of work is to complete tasks to gain income, it's to have a timeshare in your employee's life.

Like, if your job is answering tech support chats or whatever, yes, it's important to keep close track of your employee's work on this scale. If you're doing accounting-type work, some "have the Zimmerman file on my desk by Friday" shit, the important thing is that the file's on the desk by Friday.

These sorts of policies are an attempt to standardize human beings beneath the level of usefulness and will end up fostering a work environment that's supremely toxic, with managers and workers having an adversarial relationship and the appearance of work being valued more than the work itself.

From everything I know of Wells Fargo it reached "supremely toxic work environment" quite a few years ago
