New Cameras = Workplace Fun!

[thataintchicken]

Corporate just had new digital surveillance cams installed.
Glad to have them for my improved safety and security?
nope.

I'm thinking about using them to make a short zombie film.

Corporate usually has lots of zombies, too.

surveillance = normalization

beware of the Panopticon!

I have about 12, installed in each of my network closets across several remote locations, it takes a Pre, post, and actual time snapshot whenever it catches motion, then it emails them to me. Some of the pictures I have gotten back are priceless.

Few years ago, there was conflict between the admin and the workers in the fire department. Friction between us to say the least.

One of our practical jokers put in a fake security camera in the living quarters of the station. Wow did that ignite a **** storm! All time greatness.

Diid it culminate in this?

Good one. LOL

But no. Firemen are way more childish than that. They just sat around and pissed and moaned about it and everything else. The ones that weren't piss'n n moan'n were on the phone calling everyone else. It's amazing how fast things can spread through a department.

Just to be clear. It was all in good fun. We do take things more seriously than that. But it's necessary to have a diversion from reality on occasion. At least I think everyone knew better.

Would suggest getting into provocative positions on your desk where the cameras can see you and rub your nipples. Do this several times a day.

Or steal a Donald Duck head from Disneyland and wear it while working.

Had to teach the rest of the managers how to use the thing today.
I caught a senior manager 'adjusting himself' and scratching the nads 7 ( seven ) times.

Guess what snaps and videos made it into the training. :rockin:

I might be looking for work soon

I demand proof of said "priceless" pictures!

My last job, the fire detection system in the UK data center wouldn't work. So, they setup a camera and put it on the screen in the US data center. The only good things we saw were some rats. The manager in the UK refused to believe his new data center had rats, even with the videos.

And I betcha they'll never forget the lesson, and be more "circumspect" next time.

You and your coworkers should buy a bulk box of Dilbert masks and everyone wear them one day out of the week! Corporate wouldn't appreciate the humor, but oh well.

We monitor cameras in our control room. We're supposed to watch for things going wrong with equipment. Mainly, we watch for hogs down by the river.
