Stay Awake, Computer

How do you evaluate an employee’s productivity? Why, by seeing whether their desktop computer ever goes to sleep or not, of course! It’s not like anybody can force their computer to stay awake, right? If the computer automatically goes to sleep after 15 minutes of inactivity, it must mean that the employee is slacking off.

This, of course, doesn’t make a lick of sense. However, the staff at this company were quick to catch on to how they were being graded. In order to receive positive remarks on their evaluation reports, they simply taped one of their keyboard keys down to force their snitch of a computer to stay awake.
