A Day at the Office in 2013

A cautionary note amid a workplace utopia: "On this day, at 8:30 am, Gregor Samson will receive his first "referral," an auto-generated, monthly employee report from the CSI. The report informs him that in the last 30 days he has spent 6 percent of his time browsing non-authorized Web locations, 23 percent in video conferences, 1.33 percent in the 4th floor lavatory, and 6 percent at the nearby Starbucks coincident with another 8x employee. He is also made aware that he is over budget in his application usage, which is metered by the minute." The minute any employer tries that on me, I'm out of there. I'd rather sell (bad) art on the street.
