Good. Imagine filming this whole talk, about how easily it is to track and illegally survey your employees, then EDITED it rechecked and STILL thought he was doing the right thing, WTF ‼️ This is no way to be TREATED by anyone, especially an employer who only has the rights to your specific skills for that job. So, why the hell would he need to encroach on others PRIVATE SPACES?🤦😈 HE NEEDS TO ASK HIMSELF THAT SAME QUESTION: "WOULD HE FEEL COMFORTABLE, OF HIS EMPLOYER WAS MONITORING EVERYTHING ABOUT YOUR HOME, THE PEOPLE IN IT, THE LAYOUT, THE KID'S BEDROOMS ETC I COULD GO ON AND ON! THIS TWAT NEEDED TO BE IN JAIL/PRISON 10 YEARS AGO!
Bill gates was always a terrible boss! He would check the license plates in the parking lot to keep track of who came in late or early etc and would constantly be a jerk, fighting with employees, yelling all the time etc. Check the guy who could expose him died right before covid blew up! Hummmm oddly the PCR creator died suddenly right before the covid tyranny, he is on video explaining this test was NOT ABLE to diagnose ANYTHING it only amplified stuff and he OFTEN berated Fauci and wanted to debate him, but Fauci REFUSED! Anyway, the co-owner of Microsoft wrote a book about his experience and there's articles written in lifestyle I think back in 2014 where it tells us Bill ripped him off continually, really shady stuff. Funny the guy who could totally expose Bill gates dies right before this globalist eugenics technocratic pillaging power grab! Makes me wonder if they killed him or were just waiting to pull this off after they died. 😳
They'll pay money to get software rather than just paying workers more fairly lol. When I was a marketing manager we sent $8k to an agency for bits advice monthly where I received half for full time effort.
@Your Mom's Tits: In Vietnam, we have a saying for such attitude like you said, it is: "Nice Stuff with Cheap Price", or "Skills of Superman, but Payment is for Janitor".
Sounds like the only person with questionable productivity is this CEO. If he is spending all his time tracking all his employees what value is he adding?
I agree. He could be supporting his employees. Contacting individuals through their workday or workweek and asking them if they needed anything. Likewise the employee would be willing to work an honest days work for an honest days pay. This creep doesn't trust anyone because he thinks everyone tries to game the system the same way he does.
Companies want good slaves who are married/have kids. After about 20 years working, I'll tell young people you should not have any loyalty to any organization, they will turn on you in a second when its convenient and fire/replace you. Also to ensure no slavery, young people dont get married and dont get a girl pregnant, make sure she takes the birth control pill daily in front of you and both wear protection. You will just condemn your new child to increasing poverty and freedomless slavery and these control/money/job trends worsen. Promote this idea in videos and social media to help prevent more young people into this new slavery.
@Super Mario I have a woman, child, a house with lot of equity, more in savings than what you will make over most of your career, 2 vehicles and have a good paying IT job. But foolish guys like you will have to learn the hard way considering how clueless you are.
he's undoubtedly the owner or has control of his position somehow (external investors). he's not going anywhere, but his business will struggle vs competition that doesn't behave this way. of course, he is CEO because he as a need to be in control, even more than the money his business makes (which is just another means to gain control in his life and of those around him).
It's all about CONTROL, and the CEO is wasting his time because he doesn't trust his employees, when he should be doing higher level business decisions.
I'm just waiting for the part where the CEO buys another TV so he can live stream everyone's social media accounts in real time while simultaneously deny that any form of spying is going on.
If he is accessing and taking pictures of employees personal computers and storing them, I’m pretty sure it’s a violation of Federal wiretap laws. The screenshots being uploaded to a private server would qualify as communications. Enjoy. If you really want to make sure to get him, open up private emails between yourself and a friend or family member. That would remove all ambiguity. “It is a federal crime to wiretap or to use a machine to capture the communications of others without court approval, unless one of the parties has given their prior consent. It is likewise a federal crime to use or disclose any information acquired by illegal wiretapping or electronic eavesdropping.”
Honestly, I'd love to work at this company. It would be great to pull up my medical information while I'm on scheduled breaks. It would most likely get flagged as unproductive. Then they'd record the screenshots, providing time stamped evidence of a HIPPA violations. That's a quick way to get bonus pay - and if they fire you for it, that's even more bonus pay. Happy employee, happy lawyers.
HIPPA only covers medical providers. Your plan would not allow you to successfully sue for a HIPPA violation. I get it, everyone can’t be a lawyer, but come on, if you’re going to be sue-happy, know the damn laws.

Does he have no shame. Coding is like art. People can do hours of coding in minutes if you have an epiphany, or minutes of coding in hours if you can't think of something.
Coding is also staying with the company. It continues to bring value/money to them while you sleep, eat, slack and after you leave. Nobody seems interested in measuring that.. If they would spend more time on actually pointing the products in the right direction instead of mind numbing policing games, they would get 100x ROI and make up for any lack of "productivity" .. whatever that means in today's age. It's actually profitability they should measure. Many times standing still is actually more efficient than doing busy work in the wrong directions..

He is admittedly deceitful to his customers, spying on his employees, micromanaging, has time to brag about all of it on video.... Clearly a role model we all respect.
I used to have a boss that would watch me and other workers on camera after he'd go home. He would always make jokes about stuff we were doing when he was gone. The worst part was that nobody messed around, it was almost like he enjoyed watching his pets make him money on camera from home. Always bragged about how he could watch us anywhere he was from his phone, on vacation in Mexico, on his couch, whatever. Guy was a real motivator (not).
No BS, but I had a boss at a movie theater brag that he would watch us from his home. He even bragged that there were cameras at the doors to the bathroom to check how long we were in there. He would call managers to tell them if we took too long pooping. We made minimum wage.
Yup. I watched an owner stand outside all day in 90s degrees watch a painter paint. For 8 hours, to make sure he got his money’s worth. Never lent one hand.
I'm 56 born in 1964 .. the youngest of the boomers.. this man appears around 50 .. btw were not all creeps lol .. this generation Xer tho does seem like a condescending prick .. I've encountered plenty of individuals with that smug arrogance in my career ..
this is a personality issue with this particular person imo (albiet I'm basing it on very limited information admittingly).. an effective leader is able to establish a good working rapport with his/her employees and earn their respect .. when your employees respect you they are productive and WANT to do a good job .. hence this type of monitoring setup he's describing is not necessary.. i speak from experience..
Yeah, I'm sure "very well paid" means 15% below market. Since they're a bunch of snot nosed twenty-somethings they should be getting federal minimum wage and be happy for the privilege.
@dota vinkz Customer service, tech support are already assembly line workers. They demand around 50 calls or more a day regardless of level of difficulty.
@dota vinkz WOW! When call volumes get super high it causes serious stress and then you have to deal with a$sholes too. I hope the families sued FB for wrongful death!
Holy crap! Setting up a 65" monitor just to watch screenshots of employee's computers. Doesn't this guy have a job, like running a company? Oh wait....
Yeah the boss at my real day job does that. Rolls in around 11am, works five hours if that (work is a nebulous term). Just put up a 65" monitor for the wall so he can watch all the employee cameras or golf, depends on which is going on. Keeps his door shut, had to put in a window due to HR but mirrored it of course. Never leaves the office, never gives at a boys, or comingles with "staff" unless he needs to come out and yell at them. Guess how our morale here is.
It’s amazing how no one bring the topic of resolution in the comments. Does anyone actually understand that 65” doesn’t give you anything if it’s still 1080p or 4k? :)
This guy is the “old school”, anachronistic business practices personified. I can guarantee that company didn’t consult any psychologists or any other professionals on how to optimize work productivity and maximize employee morale (which has been proven to increase employee performance). This is the problem when people are treated like disposable machines and the only thing being monitored is their output. There is NO place for this mentality in a productive company.
I feel sorry for anyone who feels they need this job just to live their lives. What a horrible situation to be put in and easily the creepiest and worst CEO I can imagine working for.
Also, coding is not merely typing. It’s a continuous process of problem solving and thought. The typing is the very small part where you are either laying relatively simple ground work or after you have done dozens or hundreds of hours of thinking and planning.
For anyone still in school, know that when you get into the work force there will still be petty drama just with adults and someone constantly hovering over your shoulder until you go home so get used to it cuz it doesn't stop. Dont get your hopes up like me and think people mature and things change. Only way to break the cycle is too start your own business.
If you can't trust the people you hire to do their job, you should either take a closer look your hiring practices or take a closer look at yourself for personal issues.
Well, I'm nearly 68 and I don't know the first thing about coding. But 5 minutes into this, my mind was turning to the possibility of writing a program designed to show Mr Goofy here exactly what he wanted to see while I got on with my online shopping (slippers, bifocals, etc.)
I briefly worked for a company that used software similar to this for work at home employees. A couple of us put together a script that would detect the screenshot timings, then Fullscreen a Mickey Mouse picture for the screenshot. They quickly changed it to random timings. Was fun while it lasted. I can just imagine this guy looking at a 65" screen full of Mickey Mouse.
During my Personnel Management training, I learned an excellent tip. Don't sneak around looking for what staff might have done badly. Instead, sneak around looking for that which staff did well and praise them.
It's not his house, he is monitoring with secure camera he brought by to check if real owners are coming home, just in case he can say he was self-defending himself, since it has gloves to leave no fingerprints anywhere
So basically the employee who has a code opened in a "work" laptop and is watching Netflix in a personal laptop or phone is more productive than the employee who codes all day long and checks his bank account for 20 seconds? No wonder why no one has ever told him that.
The last Jerk I saw like me this could Not Manage anything and was Featured on the evening news for scamming his customers out of their life savings and had the FBI hunting him and his wife down
I don't want to "improve communication." I want you to screw off and let me do my damn job. You know, the job you're paying me to do, but you're constantly trying to distract me from doing.
Plot twist is, his business is built on spying on his own employees. This guy is wearing rubber gloves at home while giving an interview. Guys, get a Raspberry pie 4 and VPN this guy out. 😆
@@tallswede80 a raspberry pi 4 (short raspi4/rpi4) is the latest iteration of the raspberry pi foundation's single board computers. They can run anything (websites, VPNs, Proxies, Email servers, etc.) as long as they're powerful enough to handle the expected traffic.
This man's behavior and thinking is the very cause of employee stress and lack of productivity. He's getting paid more than everyone else, to snoop instead of work.
That's right. I wonder how he would react if someone told him to have the same system installed on HIS computer(s) and let the employees snoop on him. Bet he would try to find an excuse to not have what his employees have.
Never work for an organization where you're in a dime-a-dozen position. If your boss sees you as so little of a human that your screen is tracked, you're absolutely replaceable, no matter what your job title is.
He forces his employees to meet three times in a day, and spies on their computers personal lives. This man is crazy and this is what happens when crazy people gain too much control over others. He doesn't deserve his job.
But he trying to say that the company wont let you use Google to solve the problem they expect you to know everything on your head which is not possible. Google is life lol
I wonder if these CEOs realize that they’re employing software engineers who most likely are able to collaborate and come up with an efficient loophole for these bogus tracking systems 😬
I moved to the mountains with no high speed internet. I was so burnt after giving my life the last company I for worked almost 20 years. We now have starlink for internet and I was thinking about getting a home job. There is no way I would go back to the workforce if I had to deal with this shit! I'd rather be broke and happy than dealing with that ! I was one that was HAPPY to give my life over to a job . I love your videos. Helps me to create a balanced attitude and see the errors in my way. I was taught the boomer thinking and lived it to the fullest. Work, work work! I wish I could have enjoyed life more before... You are helping me to relax and maybe not feel guilty about not working. If I do work again, you are giving me tools not to not fall in that mind set again. You are a smart man !
I love that you find out at the end that the employees he's referring to are developers. Yes, I'm sure a bunch of developers are going to throw their hands up and concede defeat to a monitoring software😂
I would send him a video of a bathroom break and film the SHIT being flushed in the toilet with the captions "I don't want to to lose track of anything"
My company had us keep track of what we were doing throughout the day. I recorded everything to the exact minute and made sure to add my bathroom breaks. 🙃 We're not asked to keep detailed records of daily activity anymore.
I can tell that this guy is a terrible father. If he's going to get on his employees case about kids running around in the background, he probably emotionally neglects his kids. He'll end up in a nursing home.I can also tell he lacks a conscious, kind of like a sociopath. I bet he has a lot of skeletons in his closet. Bum orifice.
well some employers love to track employers. some employers use software that tracks behavior. luckily my current employer only cares about results by milestones and deadlines. they don't bug me otherwise.
This is literally the worst employer I could ever imagine working for. Next thing it will be ai controlling an employee's entire life, and this guy is helping it get a foot in the door.
@asdrubale bisanzio That's a program (I don't know how it's called) it's made for tracking you so you're always centered for conference calls for example.
This guy is an absolute tool, I could never work for someone like this. All trust is lost the moment you start spying. I spend my morning waking up and catching up on TH-cam, and then I go full out most of the afternoon. Never missed a deadline, never get that "burn't out feel". I feel motivated to work, no feeling of spite.
I seriously hope all the employees in his company resign within a short period of time, which would leave him dumbfounded as to why there’s not enough people to hire.
He’s so transparent. He should be congratulated for being so open about how he is using the fact he pays people a fraction of what they produce to justify invasion if privacy and controlling their lives.
LMAO, I keep hearing all these crazy monitoring stories. Here’s my typical phone checkup with my boss: Boss: Work getting done? Me: Yes, no problems. Boss: Anything new? Me: [informs boss about some ad hoc request] Boss: Thanks, don’t work too hard. Me: I didn’t plan on it. Boss: Have a great rest of the day. Me: You too. Max time: 10 minutes. Mostly, every other day. Sometimes daily if we are in a rush. Usually mid afternoon. Group meetings are around once every two weeks with sub-group meetings for unusual assignments as needed. If you hire good employees and trust them, you don’t really need to spend that much time managing your employees.
Literally how my boss checks up on me. The freedom to do things however I wish as long as everything gets done is the perfect approach. Some people might disagree and prefer regular or constant contact but I appreciate mine for doing this.
Despite the fact that spying on your employees should be illegal (and it is in my country) - can we please also acknowledge that it's plain stupid that so many companies think private browsing is "unproductive" and a "waste of time"? Development work is hard work for your mind and especially if you have performance peaks there are times where you need to distract your mind a bit to don't get burned out. I'm sure if they really find a way to force their employees to never get a single minute of distraction during their work time, performance will decrease massively after some time (despite the most competent people leaving and going to a company that respects them). Humans are not robots!
This is exactly why I am self employed. I never understood this...who came up with the concept of paying idiots like him more money than the employees actually doing the work that keeps a business open. I’m so glad you put these videos out! Been thinking this for years.
"We have very well paid, mid-20 year old, staff working for us" Really? He doesn't even have the respect to call them coworkers working with him to achieve sales and profits? Yikes... nice guy..
Sad part is that if this guy ever realizes how stupid this idea is, he'll have already invested so much money into the software and a useless 65" monitor that he'll just adhere to sunk cost fallacy and never reverse his bad decisions.
He deleted the video.

this is a personality issue with this particular person imo (albiet I'm basing it on very limited information admittingly).. an effective leader is able to establish a good working rapport with his/her employees and earn their respect .. when your employees respect you they are productive and WANT to do a good job .. hence this type of monitoring setup he's describing is not necessary.. i speak from experience..
"Very well payed 20 years old" you know he's salty about dev salaries
Yeah, I'm sure "very well paid" means 15% below market. Since they're a bunch of snot nosed twenty-somethings they should be getting federal minimum wage and be happy for the privilege.
Meanwhile he makes triple plus bonus
@dota vinkz Customer service, tech support are already assembly line workers. They demand around 50 calls or more a day regardless of level of difficulty.
@@Grind2Excellence Triple?? That is modest pay for an executive.
@dota vinkz WOW! When call volumes get super high it causes serious stress and then you have to deal with a$sholes too. I hope the families sued FB for wrongful death!
Holy crap! Setting up a 65" monitor just to watch screenshots of employee's computers. Doesn't this guy have a job, like running a company? Oh wait....
Yeah the boss at my real day job does that. Rolls in around 11am, works five hours if that (work is a nebulous term). Just put up a 65" monitor for the wall so he can watch all the employee cameras or golf, depends on which is going on. Keeps his door shut, had to put in a window due to HR but mirrored it of course. Never leaves the office, never gives at a boys, or comingles with "staff" unless he needs to come out and yell at them. Guess how our morale here is.
@@majorbutthurt7629 you should document all of that. CYA.
he sounds like shit tbh, he doesn't do anything as CEO
It’s amazing how no one bring the topic of resolution in the comments. Does anyone actually understand that 65” doesn’t give you anything if it’s still 1080p or 4k? :)
This guy is the “old school”, anachronistic business practices personified. I can guarantee that company didn’t consult any psychologists or any other professionals on how to optimize work productivity and maximize employee morale (which has been proven to increase employee performance). This is the problem when people are treated like disposable machines and the only thing being monitored is their output. There is NO place for this mentality in a productive company.
There is no place for it in society.
I feel sorry for anyone who feels they need this job just to live their lives. What a horrible situation to be put in and easily the creepiest and worst CEO I can imagine working for.
We can close your browser. THAT sounds illegal, my dude.
Looks like a Soy-based Lex Luthor
Lex Luthor was alpha AF!
Soy boy lol
😂😂😂
I'm numb. That was ice cold!!!
Lmfao
they don't see employees as people. they see them as property
#We_Are_Livestock
Because they are. What makes a worker different from a sheep if they both abide to Butcher orders
Well they are property, your not forced to be there so it’s fair enough
There's a reason it's called Human Resources...
Also, coding is not merely typing. It’s a continuous process of problem solving and thought. The typing is the very small part where you are either laying relatively simple ground work or after you have done dozens or hundreds of hours of thinking and planning.
...Tell me about it...
Which of course only people who understands at least basics of programming. Clearly dude isn’t one of them
For anyone still in school, know that when you get into the work force there will still be petty drama just with adults and someone constantly hovering over your shoulder until you go home so get used to it cuz it doesn't stop. Dont get your hopes up like me and think people mature and things change. Only way to break the cycle is too start your own business.
If you can't trust the people you hire to do their job, you should either take a closer look your hiring practices or take a closer look at yourself for personal issues.
Well, I'm nearly 68 and I don't know the first thing about coding. But 5 minutes into this, my mind was turning to the possibility of writing a program designed to show Mr Goofy here exactly what he wanted to see while I got on with my online shopping (slippers, bifocals, etc.)
Day shoes and cheaters!
Just use your smart phone for personal stuff
I briefly worked for a company that used software similar to this for work at home employees. A couple of us put together a script that would detect the screenshot timings, then Fullscreen a Mickey Mouse picture for the screenshot. They quickly changed it to random timings. Was fun while it lasted. I can just imagine this guy looking at a 65" screen full of Mickey Mouse.
During my Personnel Management training, I learned an excellent tip. Don't sneak around looking for what staff might have done badly. Instead, sneak around looking for that which staff did well and praise them.
The part that scares me the most, is that this guy expects to control and watch people like this inside their own home.
I actually recently got hired by a company that uses the software, so I appreciate this video. Than you for your service, Josh!
He looks like he just broke into that place
🤣🤣
It's not his house, he is monitoring with secure camera he brought by to check if real owners are coming home, just in case he can say he was self-defending himself, since it has gloves to leave no fingerprints anywhere
I am glad I scrolled down.
Ahahahahahahah
But I thought he was the Hitman 😆
So basically the employee who has a code opened in a "work" laptop and is watching Netflix in a personal laptop or phone is more productive than the employee who codes all day long and checks his bank account for 20 seconds? No wonder why no one has ever told him that.
Not to mention that the latter guy is put in danger of giving valuable information to the HR psychos.
This guy lost the plot. If you have to go to this extreme then you have serious questions to ask yourself.
yeah if he has to be this extreme just to monitor his employees then ask himself why and not doubt his employees
That would require an honest self evaluation, which requires self-awareness.
The last Jerk I saw like me this could Not Manage anything and was Featured on the evening news for scamming his customers out of their life savings and had the FBI hunting him and his wife down
Nothing promotes creativity like fear and hatred.
This is disturbing. How does a man like this become anything in this world. Truly is scary.
I don't want to "improve communication." I want you to screw off and let me do my damn job. You know, the job you're paying me to do, but you're constantly trying to distract me from doing.
Plot twist is, his business is built on spying on his own employees. This guy is wearing rubber gloves at home while giving an interview. Guys, get a Raspberry pie 4 and VPN this guy out. 😆
Raspberry pie 4!? I remember them back in the Day. I thought my brother was so Cool for having a raspberry pie 🤦🤣
Is raspberry pie 4 a vpn?
@@tallswede80 no but it can be :D
@@tallswede80 a raspberry pi 4 (short raspi4/rpi4) is the latest iteration of the raspberry pi foundation's single board computers. They can run anything (websites, VPNs, Proxies, Email servers, etc.) as long as they're powerful enough to handle the expected traffic.
Lol
This man's behavior and thinking is the very cause of employee stress and lack of productivity. He's getting paid more than everyone else, to snoop instead of work.
That's right. I wonder how he would react if someone told him to have the same system installed on HIS computer(s) and let the employees snoop on him. Bet he would try to find an excuse to not have what his employees have.
This is a great example of micromanaging and a toxic work environment. Side note: he’s a videographers worse nightmare.
Never work for an organization where you're in a dime-a-dozen position. If your boss sees you as so little of a human that your screen is tracked, you're absolutely replaceable, no matter what your job title is.
When he says “other kids”, is he calling his employees “kids”?!!! Revolting
I’d like to see a screenshot of twelve year old employees and his grades for them in red.
This guy can't imagine anyone's life except his own.
so a sociopath.. i agree
@@awakeandwatching953 I think that's a required trait to be a CEO.
his personality and level of competence as a ceo screams Dollar General
gotta love those jobs where they won't let you finish anything because you keep getting dragged into "meetings" all day
And then they calculate that meeting time as unproductive time just to pad their numbers against you and justify giving a 1% raise instead of 3%.
Seriously they'll call it ' collaboration' when what it actually is is interrupting
Agreed
"It doesn't seem like you care if I get the project done. If you did, you wouldn't want me sitting here."
IIRC I've said that.
Exposing sociopaths. You are doing God’s work.
The fact that he's wearing black gloves in his basement....is scary...
He forces his employees to meet three times in a day, and spies on their computers personal lives. This man is crazy and this is what happens when crazy people gain too much control over others. He doesn't deserve his job.
I'd lose my job if they tracked what I was doing. They'd see that I spend most of my time googling the code I need to solve a problem.
But he trying to say that the company wont let you use Google to solve the problem they expect you to know everything on your head which is not possible. Google is life lol
@@USELESSFACTSDAILYDAY you need google or a mountain of books. Google is faster, time = money.
@@Eluderatnight yes this ceo is crazy when I program I google all the time if I don't know the answer lol
Isn't that just an integral part of being a developer?
Let's face it, we all google shit we know just to copy&paste or just need internal developer reassurance
I wonder if these CEOs realize that they’re employing software engineers who most likely are able to collaborate and come up with an efficient loophole for these bogus tracking systems 😬
If it plugs into a computer 99.9999% chance it's USB. If it's USB it can be spoofed :D
Or just buy aftermarket stuff on the web? Simple
I moved to the mountains with no high speed internet. I was so burnt after giving my life the last company I for worked almost 20 years. We now have starlink for internet and I was thinking about getting a home job. There is no way I would go back to the workforce if I had to deal with this shit! I'd rather be broke and happy than dealing with that ! I was one that was HAPPY to give my life over to a job . I love your videos. Helps me to create a balanced attitude and see the errors in my way. I was taught the boomer thinking and lived it to the fullest. Work, work work! I wish I could have enjoyed life more before... You are helping me to relax and maybe not feel guilty about not working. If I do work again, you are giving me tools not to not fall in that mind set again. You are a smart man !
I love that you find out at the end that the employees he's referring to are developers. Yes, I'm sure a bunch of developers are going to throw their hands up and concede defeat to a monitoring software😂
I would send him a video of a bathroom break and film the SHIT being flushed in the toilet with the captions "I don't want to to lose track of anything"
My company had us keep track of what we were doing throughout the day. I recorded everything to the exact minute and made sure to add my bathroom breaks. 🙃
We're not asked to keep detailed records of daily activity anymore.
@@asia.b
Awesome haha
My last job wanted me to work faster. I printed every piece if work I did. Work doesnt happen in a vacuum. Smh.
I can tell that this guy is a terrible father. If he's going to get on his employees case about kids running around in the background, he probably emotionally neglects his kids. He'll end up in a nursing home.I can also tell he lacks a conscious, kind of like a sociopath. I bet he has a lot of skeletons in his closet. Bum orifice.
Idk who would have a kid with him!!
I feel for his kids. He’s going to be the type that puts cameras in their room and tracks their phone as adults!
I've had managers like this before..yep, that's exactly what happens.
He is probably hyper-controlling father if he has kids
I'm not sure if he likes women in that way.
If I found out that my employer was doing this I would be shooting out resumes same day.
FACTS! that second
He’s overlooked monitoring the employee phones to see what websites they go to.
GLAD i FOUND YOUR CHANNEL. Very Informative
This seems like a guy who was never challenged on his opinion. Hopefully this doesn't become a thing in Canada
He's from Canada, F
well some employers love to track employers. some employers use software that tracks behavior. luckily my current employer only cares about results by milestones and deadlines. they don't bug me otherwise.
Canada would love this, lowkey commie af
@@satelliteinc.6767 socialist, there is hell of a difference. But yeah this shit doesnt fly in a lot of IT/Programing work places in Toronto.
@@satelliteinc.6767 I bet the software is American. And you just know that American employers are drooling at the thought of tracking their employees.
This is literally the worst employer I could ever imagine working for. Next thing it will be ai controlling an employee's entire life, and this guy is helping it get a foot in the door.
Creepy and sad. I wish nobody to work in such conditions.
people who put up with this do all of us a great deal of harm
I think this dude could use some more grey in his life. It really reflects his personality.
Lead is a metallic grey
@@Irishcream216 And it's quite useful for people like him...
Something tells me we can mark this guy's scorecard as "unproductive" for the entire day, every day.
👏👏👏👏
If I worked for this guy, I would edit my resume and send out a bunch of applications while he monitors me.
For some reason my employees are on LinkedIn all day. They said they were doing research.
@Cecilia Cole I was joking. I shoulda put that in quotes.
Bahahaha
Am I the only one who's MASSIVELY distracted by that guy's constant swaying?
@asdrubale bisanzio That's a program (I don't know how it's called) it's made for tracking you so you're always centered for conference calls for example.
I got seasick.
I was looking for this comment
Real ceos don't act like this whatsoever.
Thank you, jesus it makes me almost as nauseous as his face and personality and workplace policies and
This guy is an absolute tool, I could never work for someone like this. All trust is lost the moment you start spying. I spend my morning waking up and catching up on TH-cam, and then I go full out most of the afternoon. Never missed a deadline, never get that "burn't out feel". I feel motivated to work, no feeling of spite.
I feel bad about the people who actually work for this guy. I want to hear the employee stories on this surveillance and if it's still continuing on!
I seriously hope all the employees in his company resign within a short period of time, which would leave him dumbfounded as to why there’s not enough people to hire.
He’s so transparent. He should be congratulated for being so open about how he is using the fact he pays people a fraction of what they produce to justify invasion if privacy and controlling their lives.
The same monitoring software should be put on these managers and CEO's computers. Someone has to make sure they're being productive.
LMAO, I keep hearing all these crazy monitoring stories. Here’s my typical phone checkup with my boss:
Boss: Work getting done?
Me: Yes, no problems.
Boss: Anything new?
Me: [informs boss about some ad hoc request]
Boss: Thanks, don’t work too hard.
Me: I didn’t plan on it.
Boss: Have a great rest of the day.
Me: You too.
Max time: 10 minutes. Mostly, every other day. Sometimes daily if we are in a rush. Usually mid afternoon.
Group meetings are around once every two weeks with sub-group meetings for unusual assignments as needed.
If you hire good employees and trust them, you don’t really need to spend that much time managing your employees.
Literally how my boss checks up on me. The freedom to do things however I wish as long as everything gets done is the perfect approach. Some people might disagree and prefer regular or constant contact but I appreciate mine for doing this.
This CEO is a damn joke. Shows how insecure and little trust he has in his people. Good luck keeping the company afloat
If ever in doubt if your work laptop is sending screenshots somewhere. Have a program called fiddler which will list all outgoing payloads
Smug is the word.
And there is our smudgeness
Smarmy is another good one.

Control freak? Maybe
Sounds like a control freak with his gloves looking like Mr. Clean.
Wow being a babysitter as a boomer seems like a great accomplishment in life. 👍
don't let that bald head fool you--he's in his 40's--he's not a boomer. He just has male pattern baldness.
He’s Gen X….I’m Gen X and most of us aren’t like this at all….fk this guy.
He doesn't look old enough to be Gen X. He looks like a bald baby 👶.
Probably late 30s early 40s.
In other words, he better not catch you doing anything else besides work
This guy is Super Paranoid with wearing those Black gloves
Im willing to (barely) tolerate a lot of things in the workplace to get a paycheck, but employee monitoring is where I draw the line.
Ah, I see. Sounds like he is using outsourced at home workers, probably cheap Filipino workers since he referenced Typhoons.
Imagine spending most of your time monitoring your employees and then have the audacity to call yourself a manager
He's one of those people whose job is to bother the employee as much as possible because it makes himself look good
As a German, I am shocked. This guy would go straight to jail here.
OMG Josh, who the hell is this monster? Just want to know so that I will never work for this clown.

He definitely has cameras in the restrooms.
Despite the fact that spying on your employees should be illegal (and it is in my country) - can we please also acknowledge that it's plain stupid that so many companies think private browsing is "unproductive" and a "waste of time"?
Development work is hard work for your mind and especially if you have performance peaks there are times where you need to distract your mind a bit to don't get burned out. I'm sure if they really find a way to force their employees to never get a single minute of distraction during their work time, performance will decrease massively after some time (despite the most competent people leaving and going to a company that respects them). Humans are not robots!
3 staff meetings in a day would kill us. A good part of my company’s day is already meetings with clients.
This is exactly why I am self employed. I never understood this...who came up with the concept of paying idiots like him more money than the employees actually doing the work that keeps a business open. I’m so glad you put these videos out! Been thinking this for years.
i like when he says I'm gonna hook up a 65 inch tv so i can "passively" .....LOL nothing passive about that
"We have very well paid, mid-20 year old, staff working for us"
Really? He doesn't even have the respect to call them coworkers working with him to achieve sales and profits? Yikes... nice guy..
@asdrubale bisanzio Thats horrible, of course it's their boss, but have some respect for your employees. I think it shows what he's all about.
They aren't coworkers. It would require him working as well. They're workers he is a despot.
Sad part is that if this guy ever realizes how stupid this idea is, he'll have already invested so much money into the software and a useless 65" monitor that he'll just adhere to sunk cost fallacy and never reverse his bad decisions.
He's the archetype of your average public high school teacher, especially nowadays.
