Things like this are probably why most of us do what we do rather than work in the corporate world.

Before going in to the adult biz I was a corporate exec at a pretty big company and was in charge of over 7200 employees across 3 states of offices. That company had, and probably still has the mindset that if you are in any level of management you are supposed to be reachable 24/7. That is the price you pay for the promotion in to management. Now I don't know if they would go as far as to require a stupid tracking device but realistically if you have to be reachable 24/7 it isn't much different.

I always thought that was pretty retarded and it is exactly why I left the corporate world. However now as the person who owns the business I can assure you I get in a pretty pissy mood when something goes wrong and I need my manager and can't get in touch with her. So while retarded companies take things to the extreme I can sort of understand their mindset of wanting their management on point at any needed moment.
