How are we feeling today?

By Nick Farrell: Wednesday, 16 January 2008, 5:55 PM 


SOFTWARE Cthulhuoid Microsoft has decided it would be nifty idea if you wired up your employees and monitored how 
they were feeling.

According to the Times, the Vole has patented computer software that would allow managers to remotely monitor the 
wellbeing and productivity of employees.

Under the glorious Volish vision you would be plugged into Vista and have your blood pressure, body temperature, 
heart rate and facial expression monitored by your boss.

Yes! Fluffy feel good equals production!!!

Who needs to base how employees are doing on their actual production anyway?
