Office worker completely freaks out (1 Viewer)

[flashback]

The kind of office that doesn't require them to be either plugged in or connected to a computer.

Wireless monitors. Cool.

Fakeness after all. Bollix.

what if it was about one of their colleagues?

I'm tired of being told what to think
I'm tired of being told what to do
I'm tired of fucking phonies
That's right, I'm tired of you

Ha ha, exactly.
I thought the lad off in the right corner was going to throw a wobbly.

Here, what offices still use CRTs?

Yer wan at the start seemed to collect a solid monitor to the head. That would smart a bit I'd imagine.

IBM in Blanchardstown still uses crt's... really weird old systems too, not windows based! Strange archaic equipment for a company's been round since the "lads".

I was fairly tempted to do a mad one every couple of days, it would have been possible to run all the way across the office (located in a huge warehouse?!) without touching the floor...

IDA Business Park,
Ballycoolin Industrial Estate, Blanchardstown,
Dublin 15.

Right beside Damastown place, I think.
That was shite. Luckily I was able to quit to test computer games!

Hey, since when do offices have cctv cameras in them?

since office workers started going loo-la i suppose. since when did office building security guards have tazers? i thought they were meant to be armed only with lyons tea and a packet of penguins

 

[oh shit]

surveillance of workers goes hand in hand with the processes that allowed labour to first be organised, into factories, prisons, schools etc
cctv is nothing new

Stick that in your Foucault and smoke it.

No, twas on Parnell street.. it got a bit monotonous completing tony hawk over and over again, but there was free coffee and tea, lots of free coffee...some days I'd be leaving the place not knowing wether i was tony or donal

Imagine building a panopticon office. Don't get started on Focault cos I could keep going for a while.. (just finished Discipline & Punish)

Massive new skyscraper in Docklands is called the WATCHTOWER.

Spookily spot on there Foucault.

All we need now is social control built into schools from the ground up. Hang on...
