    It doesn’t give the same feeling of power to the people in charge if they don’t see the drones workers sweat.

      Yup. It’s all about that sense of control. That’s what they’re paying for. I saw a quote from a survey of execuitives: “I don’t know if my employees are walking their dogs for 4 hours per day when they’re working from home, but I know they can’t walk their dog when they’re in the office”.

      Keep in mind, business execuitives are known to believe shit like, “when I go to the gym, that’s work, because I need to be healthy for the business”.

      They believe they own us. They believe they deserve to.
