As far as I’m concerned when I’m in the office and at home, they can track me all they want. I don’t care because I’m doing my job. My question is we have someone in our world who comes in the morning signs intohis computer walks around so everyone sees him and then he leaves we don’t see him all day then he comes back back right at the 7 1/2 hour Mark and works the last half hour and leaves. On Teams he does appear as being seven hours away. So everyone knows he leaves, gets in his car - why arent they tracking that?

I used to love my coworkers who would pi-s and moan that I never did any work, then at the end of the month, when reviewing counts, I worked more issues than they did. Tell me which of us was more productive, despite being "busy" for less hours per day.
Shut down his laptop when he's gone if it bothers you so much.
@rn those were the days. Had a whole days worth of work done in 20 minutes. Our job entailed fielding customer inquiries from a shared mailbox. Which of course the bulk of the work came in around 2pm. So alot of the days. Set a timer on the phone at random intervals to keep computer awake. Watch movies played video games. Went on for several years.
Again never establish a pattern. They see a pattern, they can document.
There is now detailed “digital activity” tracking happening across the org. If someone opens their laptop and doesn’t touch it until 30 minutes before they go home they’ll get caught up eventually in that

Bullspit, there's a woman on my floor who brags about how she gets 5-days credit b/c she pops in for breakfast every day at one of the cafeterias.....of course, she's a black muslim so is unaccountable for anything.
Does TK measure her lemonade making time and her cheerleading g time?
They will get caught in the new activity tracking. How do I know? Because I used to do the same thing. I had nothing to do so I wasn’t going to sit in a cubicle and stare at the wall for 8 hours. Came in, logged in, left, came back 8 hours later. It worked until they started counting clicks. But I was on my way out anyway.
The bot @a8 has no clue what's actually going on.
Their strategy is very simple: irritate and provoke you as much as possible until you decide to leave the company, OR find something they can use to claim you violated a rule and terminate you without paying severance. Now, play your own tactics and strategy.
Fake. Majority of teams not only track in office hours but also productivity. Hard to get away with it now
In MSP many people do not even come in to the office
Managers do not care.
There are still a lot of people getting paid very handsomely to do virtually nothing. Good thing they work for a bank because most places would not only expect them to show up 5 days a week, they'd expect them to provide a value added service to justify their salary. That hasn't been a thing on the corporate side of WF for decades, if ever.
It's called "collaboration" and it happens to be one of the main reasons we are in the office. He deserves acclaim for living the enterprise values.
Oh my lord, this person is seemingly not working hard for this cesspool, and after how well we've been treated? The horror!
This person has a whole management chain above them. Apparently, he's doing what he needs to, to keep them satisfied. What business is it, to bootlickers like you?
how about the nuisance that logs in and then spends the day just walking around talking to everyone......
