There’s a risk with that. What if they find all the deadbeats come in only to yak at the water coolers while the most productive employees are using technology to outproduce the office lackies. A smart corporation will judge employees on productivity and not whether they sit at an office desk.

That means they schmooze and go out for lunch and drinks, too.
