    An article on eliminating the clock and judging employees on goals and results verses hours worked. From the article: "Our whole notion of paid work was developed within an assembly line culture," Moen says. "Showing up was work. Best Buy is recognizing that sitting in a chair is no longer working." Clickety[^] Some very interesting ideas that I think apply very well to our field of work.

            Well, considering i work remotely from the rest of my team, there's really no one to notice when i'm not around, so long as i keep my cell phone with me. That bit is nice. :)
