On a more serious note, it wouldn't surprise me that the NSA finds it's way into this by having NIKE place a gps tracker in them.
When you are dead, you won't even know that you are dead. It's a pain only felt by others.
Same thing when you are stupid.

Not so much my colleagues (who are generally not visible) but the rabble know as employees around here:
They work very hard - keying their cell phones.

Before I was "retired," I had a great gig. I came to work and put in 8+ hours doing my hobby. The best part about it was they actually PAID me to do it!  Work??? I didn't work, I did my hobby!!

I really miss being "in the game." Unfortunately, out here there are few opportunities. I am seriously considering some open source work and are looking at companies that allow remote employment.
My current biggest problem is that my wife has a long list of things she wants done and I am spending much of my time working down the list!!

We use slack within the development team for the days that we work at home as the policy is 2 days at home and 3 in the office.
we also did have it setup before the rebrand to azure devops so that pull request were posted our slack channel.

I don't use "Slack" whatever that is. And I don't care.

I think that's against international human rights.
They abolished such cruel sentences before they abolished death penalty (and I know we'd all rather have the latter)
