Either way, I won't be passing along that info. LMAO

It just shows you as Busy in Teams.

I can’t say the thought hasn’t crossed my mind occasionally but I would never do it. I have a lot of downtime at work, but I’ve been with the same company since 94 and it’s taken me a lot of work and putting up with corporate bs to get where I’m at so it’s not worth it. I have looked at side gigs during off hours and even considered doing something like Uber,Grub Hub, etc. just for the heck of it, but dealing with customers during my free time doesn’t seem that appealing.

All the devices or software in the world won't prevent good management from rooting out bad employees. If you are a good employee and get your work done and done well then management knows it. If you are a bad employee and don't meet expectations, management should know that, as well.

I have a few design engineers that report directly to me that work from home. I get a weekly report from IT on how many hours they are actually working. It shows time actually spent on the computer actually working, meeting times where they are engaged in on-line meetings, and "idle" time. I don't expect the number of working hours to equal 40 each week because I know that is unrealistic, but anything lower than 35-36 hours and I will definitely take notice. If someone had a 20 hour week, they would be terminated unless they had a damn good explanation.

And before someone gets on here and says something about me typing this out during work hours, I have been up working since 4 a.m. and my last meeting of the day ends at 5:30 p.m. so I am definitely putting in my time.


Bro...just bro...A salary job is a salary job. It's not by the hour.

If someone has the opportunity to work from home and takes that avenue, as a leader I have to have a way of monitoring their work. I can't go to their home and peek through their windows so monitoring their online presence is the best way. I'm sorry that you are such a dumb **** that you can't understand that. So please take this opportunity to suck my spotted dick you limey prick.

Don't give me that bullshit you pathetic corporate lackey who self identifies as a "leader". Your standard response on this forum to someone offending you is to unironically challenge them to a fight at arrowhead. Don't try and pull this crap about you being a wonderful, understanding boss. You're a grubby, snivelling bottomfeeder who has nothing better to do than spy on the unfortunate people who happen to work under you. You should only be concerned with how well they are doing their job and if their output is up to scratch. The fact that you seem to take pride in watching them like a voyeur hawk shows how shitty your and your workplaces attitude is.

Did you sign a non-compete clause? If you love your job reach out to them and see how they feel. Do it on the up and up and they will not feel threatened. They might even send work your way from other contacts that they have.

I don't believe he said anything about salary. I guess I assumed we were talking hourly. I used to work a salary job before my current job (dang, I'm just now realizing that was 26 years ago). Yeah, it sucked. I always ended up working 70-80 hours even though the expectation was to work 45 hours. I looked back at that and wished I had not taken the management position. I was making more as an assistant if you figure in overtime pay. I guess that's why my opinion of salary is mostly about corporate greed than anything. :mad:

No boss has time to look at activity of their team unless given a reason. Seeing you are inactive in Teams is a red flag. This takes care of but the key loggers have the real data of your activities.

It is still growing. It is a win-win for businesses. We will continue to see this area grow for the foreseeable future.

Next thing he will be talking about is time theft.
